Thank you so much Mary Jo! The default index for public comments does not list names, so it is hard to browse. https://www.regulations.gov/docket/DOJ-CRT-2023-0007/comments Bruce From: Mary Jo Mueller <maryjom@us.ibm.com> Sent: Thursday, March 28, 2024 6:20 PM To: Bruce Bailey <Bailey@Access-Board.gov>; 508 <508@Access-Board.gov>; public-wcag2ict-tf@w3.org Subject: [WCAG2ICT] Regarding your question RE: DoJ's NPRM on website accessibility Hi Bruce, Regarding the DoJ’s (and other regulatory bodies) that are attempting to apply WCAG to websites and mobile applications. I did find ITI’s submitted comments on RIN 1190-AA79; Docket ID No. 144 which encourages the use of WCAG2ICT when applying WCAG to non-web documents and software (including native mobile apps). In reading the latest proposed language of the California bill AB-1757, it is not applying WCAG to native mobile applications, but only to web-based software usable on a mobile device. When it mentions mobile applications, it is in the context of the definition of a web-based application. There isn’t anything in the bill about native mobile applications. Best regards, Mary Jo Mueller IBM Accessibility Standards Program Manager
