Thanks Carlos, Wasn't sure about that clause - thought it might be controversial, but there are special circumstances where subsites _are_ of specific interest to (some) disabled persons. Eg. physical/public access instructions; discounts that apply; transport issues; audio-loops in buildings; sub-titles on films/tv-shows; etc Andrew ----- Original Message ----- From: "Carlos A Velasco" <Carlos.Velasco-Nunez@gmd.de> To: "WAI EO List" <w3c-wai-eo@w3.org> Cc: "Andrew Arch" <amja@optushome.com.au> Sent: Saturday, June 30, 2001 8:04 PM Subject: Re: Business Plan App X suggestion > Hi Andrew, > > I only disagree on the part "{and areas of special relevance to disabled > persons}".
