The following assitive technology developers have agreed to join us for today's telecon: Douglas H. Geoffray, GW-Micro Ben Weiss, AI Squared Glen Gordon, Henter-Joyce Fraser Shein, WiVik OnScreen Keyboard I would like to give them a warm welcome and thank them for taking the time to participate in our working group. The discussion will focus on helping the working group understand the needs of assistive technology developers in providing alternative renderings of and input into user agent technology. Based on their input, the guidelines should be a reflection of their needs as much as possible in the sections relating to assistive technology comaptibility. I would like to invite these guests back in two weeks to review and discuss the actual checkpoints related to assistive technology compatibility for their comment. The following questions will be the basis of discussion with the AT developers: 1. What would you want to tell Netscape and other browser developers to make their products more comaptible with your technologies? 2. From your persective what are the limitations and strengths of current operating system specific accessibility APIs? 3. From your perspective what are the limitations and strengths of current application and document object models? 4. What are the number one priorities for accessibility you would like to see reflected in the guidelines at this time to user agent developers?
