From today's meeting. In terms of people with disabilities.... 'What are the reasons (not to do with money) that mean that it's a good idea to ensure that web pages are backwards compatible.'? 1. Assistive technology takes time to catch up with developments in technology for non-disabled people. 2. People with disabilities (especially those with cognitive disabilities) may find it harder to recognise the importance or value of upgrading their software. 3. It takes time for non-English (internationalised) versions of software to be produced.
