The Authoring Tool Accessibility Guidelines are now in last call. http://www.w3.org/TR/WAI-AUTOOLS Well done everybody. As well as the W3C working groups who have been invited to look at it, this is effectively the last chance for general comment. Comments are invited, and should be sent to the group's mailing list, up until 4 October. This will give us a couple of days to read the last-inute comments befoer our face to face meeting, at which we will hopefully resolve all issues raised and ask the director to issue the document as a proposed recommendation. In the meantime, it would be helpful to focus our attention on the techniques document and work on developing a comprehensive set of techniques. One way of doing this is to do a conformance test of your favourite authoring tool. If it meets the requirement in some way that is not suggested by the techniques document, please describe the technique. This will help make the techniques document more useful for users and developers of documentation, who may not have considered the technique as benefitting accessibility, or may even not have realised that the technique could be used to solve a particular problem. cheers Charles McCN --Charles McCathieNevile mailto:charles@w3.org phone: +1 617 258 0992 http://www.w3.org/People/Charles W3C Web Accessibility Initiative http://www.w3.org/WAI MIT/LCS - 545 Technology sq., Cambridge MA, 02139, USA
