Nor is it at all clear that the decision of an Australian civil rights panel applies to an Olympics web site in the United States. I don't believe that Section 508 applies to, say, the University of Sussex -- so why should the Sydney Olympics decision apply here? Do we really have the naive view that the Sydney web team is in constant contact with the Salt Lake City web team? Are they even the same company?
