Selecting and using Authoring Tools
(http://www.w3.org/WAI/EO/Drafts/impl/software4)
Selecting new or replacement software:
extra question - Can a suite of tools be established to provide
the accessibility that the prefered authoring tool lacks?
The tools listed as repair tools atthe ER group's page for such things
http://www.w3.org/WAI/ER/existingtools.html would be a starting point. That
group was initially created with a charter that included producing such a
suite, as I recall, but there isn't a complete suite yet.

Working around limitation of existing tools
Do we need to include a point about 'correcting accessibility
issues' as part of hte last point?
Examples
3. "... in conjunction with a caption ..."
4a. "print media (...)" -> "print media (pagemaker, quark
express, acrobat)"
4b. "rich media (...)" -> "rich media (flash, director)"
4c. "presentation formats" -> "presentations"
6/7. dtd & css tools - should we point to any?
8 - what about the WAVE for checking?
Cheers, Andrew
