aloha!
i have been attempting to perform in-reach for the HTML WG (of which i
am a member) to make others more cognizant of the internal resources the
W3C has to offer in the realm of accessibility... i have been referring
HTML WG members to a lot of EO materials, and i have found some broken
and changed URIs in some of EO's work which i have prominently cited --
especially the "alternative web browsing document", in which i found the
following broken links:
EO page being referenced:
* http://www.w3.org/WAI/References/Browsing#1
1) BrailleSurf info lacks lang="fr" hreflang="fr" (for the string of
french text part of which is a link) and lang="es" (for the spanish
text)
2) BrookesTalk link is now:
* http://www.brookes.ac.uk/schools/cms/research/speech/btalk.htm
3) AtGentive (from Brookes) direct link now:
* http://www.atgentive.com
4) EIAD link broken: everey permutation of the link, including its base
URI
http://gippsnet.com.au/
yields nothing but a 404 Not Found error
5) MarcoPolo link leads to a web-hosting advertising page
6) the WebSound link now leads to a GNOME project page dedicated to MRML
(Multimedia Retrieval Markup Language)
i would also appreciate EO feedback on some of the HTML wiki pages i set
up and attempt to maintain:
http://esw.w3.org/topic/HTML/AccessibilityDependencies
http://esw.w3.org/topic/HTML/ARIAIntegration
http://esw.w3.org/topic/HTML/UAs
there is a section dedicated to 3rd party assistive technology, as
well as specialized browsers (self-voicing, voice input, etc.)
thank you for your attention to these matters -- this is an unparallelled
opportunity for in-reach as well as out-reach, and i want to assist EO in
whatever way possible to facillitate wider dissemination of WAI documents
gregory.
