Hi Peter, The report form that Al was referring to is at http://www.w3.org/WAI/ER/rep1 We'd very much like to hear what you think of it. It's part of an effort within WAI, "Evaluation and Repair" (ER) to create tools to help evaluate web pages, tools to help webmasters make their pages more accessible, and tools, such as proxy tools, to transform existing web pages into forms more friendly to screen readers, by techniques such as adding ALT text, linearizing tables, etc. This effort has in turn two groups, a working group (Chair, Daniel Dardailler) which will create the tools, and an interest group (Chair, Len Kasday) that will help the working group decide what to implement. By the way, this interest group is called wai-er-ig and is different from the general wai interest group, wai-er that most people are on. For more information, see The call for participation at http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/w3c-wai-ig/1998AprJun/0393.html The mailing lists are archived at http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/w3c-wai-er-wg/ http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/w3c-wai-er-ig/ The home pages are at http://www.w3.org/WAI/ER/WG/ http://www.w3.org/WAI/ER/IG/ Len Kasday At 09:03 AM 10/8/98 +0200, Peter Verhoeven wrote: >Hi, > >I only read the WAI document about how to make websites accessible. >I have given some webmasters the URL to that document, but a lot of them >feel it is to much information.
