This is very good news - congratulations to PASIG. I look forward to this progressing further. Cheers Charles McCathieNevile On Wed, 27 Oct 1999, Francisco Godinho wrote: Dear friends The Portuguese Minister of Science and Technology agreed with PASIG proposal of inclusion of accessibility on the Internet for people with disabilities in the European Ministerial conference for the Information Society . This means that there is no need to begin the International Petition for the Accessibility on the Internet in European Union. However, the European conference agenda is not defined and will be co-organized with the Portuguese presidency of the European Union and the European Commission. So, to make this proposal a reality will be necessary an International support. As soon as possible I will ask you this support Thanks in advance Francisco Godinho PASIG - Portuguese Accessibility Special Interest Group http://www.acessibilidade.net/index_eng.html -----Original Message----- From: Francisco Godinho <f.godinho@mail.telepac.pt> To: vcerf@mci.net <vcerf@mci.net>; paciello@webable.com <paciello@webable.com>; Michael Burks <mburks952@worldnet.att.net>; Ronan.P.McGuirk@AIB.IE <Ronan.P.McGuirk@AIB.IE>; EBU - ONCE <rrii@once.es>; Javier Romañach <jromanac@dial.eunet.es>; FernandoBotelho@Altavista.net <FernandoBotelho@Altavista.net>; sinarmaya@retemail.es <sinarmaya@retemail.es>; cb@ftb-volmarstein.de <cb@ftb-volmarstein.de>; atec@ctv.es <atec@ctv.es> Cc: guia.pasig@bigfoot.com <guia.pasig@bigfoot.com>; MSI - António Simões Monteiro <simoes.monteiro@missao-si.mct.pt>; MSI - José Dias Coelho <jdcoelho@missao-si.mct.pt> Date: Terça-feira, 26 de Outubro de 1999 13:59 Subject: People supporting Web accessibility milestone in Europe - April 2000 >Dear friends, > >Here you can find the list of people supporting PASIG's proposal of >inclusion of accessibility on the Internet for people with disabilities in >the conference agenda of The European Initiative for the Information Society >Conference to be held in Lisbon in April of the year 2000, during the >Portuguese Presidency of the European Union. > >This information could be founded at >http://www.acessibilidade.net/europa/People.htm > --Charles McCathieNevile mailto:charles@w3.org phone: +1 617 258 0992 http://www.w3.org/People/Charles W3C Web Accessibility Initiative http://www.w3.org/WAI MIT/LCS - 545 Technology sq., Cambridge MA, 02139, USA
