RE: EOWG: Agenda for 2 March 2007 Teleconference

This discussion is very timely as Standards Australia is in the process
of setting up an IT/ICT accessibility committee (or possibly a broader
usability committee). I recently participated in a planning day they
organised around this.

Regards, Andrew

IRC reminders and tips:
- IRC is supplemental to the call. Some participants do not have IRC.
All
substantive comments should be said verbally in the call (not just in
IRC).
- to type a side comment that will _not_ get recorded in the minutes,
type
/me comment - e.g.:
/me hopes everyone had pleasant holidays
will come out:
*shawn hopes everyone had pleasant holidays
