Hi Lucy,
Great to have you onboard EOWG - welcome! Thanks for sharing your story. I
especially liked hearing that you got satisfaction form knowing it's the
right thing to do. I think many designers and developers share what
feeling. Now the challenge is to get toolmakers about and provide
frameworks that support accessibility. I will look forward to meeting you
on Friday and working with you in the months to come.
Cheers,
Sharron
