At last week's joint teleconference between the AU WG and the ER WG, it was suggested that the ER WG's scope should include evaluation of tools. The scope of the ER WG has been evaluation of Web content, although we do keep track of tools that perform evaluations, repair, and transformations. At this time, we would not like to expand this scope. We anticipate continuing the work on test suites (sample pages) to help tool developers determine if they have correctly identified accessibility issues on a page (i.e. implemented AERT). However, this is different than the request that we heard from AU WG which was to develop a tool (similar to the Web Accessibility Report Tool) that would help developers determine their conformance to ATAG. The minutes from our call where we discussed this are available at: http://www.w3.org/WAI/ER/IG/minutes/20000612.html --wendy -- wendy a chisholm world wide web consortium web accessibility initiative madison, wi usa tel: +1 608 663 6346 /--
