Re: Quick question: We have UX, can we call Accessibility AX?

Dear Brad,

Thanks for the feedback. Actually the term "AX" does occassionally get 
used in the field but I'm not sure who coined it and how widespread it 
is. Another term that is sometimes used is "a11y". Anyway, definitely 
something to keep tracking!

Best,
   Shadi
