Web Content Accessibility and Mobile Web

Dear WAI Interest Group,

The Mobile Web Best Practices Working Group and the WAI Education and Outreach Working Group invite you to comment on the following documents published 22 January 2008:
* Web Content Accessibility and Mobile Web: Making a Web Site Accessible Both for People with Disabilities and for Mobile Devices, an introductory page
     http://www.w3.org/WAI/mobile/
* Experiences Shared by People with Disabilities and by People Using Mobile Devices [Draft] 
     http://www.w3.org/WAI/mobile/experiences
* Relationship Between Mobile Web Best Practices 1.0 and Web Content Accessibility Guidelines, First Public Working Draft 
     http://www.w3.org/TR/mwbp-wcag

These documents describe the overlap between design goals and guidelines covering accessibility for people with disabilities, and design goals and best practices for mobile devices.

The draft documents provide a framework for the community to discuss and contribute to this work. In some places there is draft content and in other places there is only a rough outline of potential content. 

Please send any comments on these documents to public-bpwg@w3.org
If possible, please send comments by 4 March 2008.
