Re: Your web Accessibility tool list has many broken links.

Great to know, thank you Shadi.
As I so often do, I wrote and hit send too fast. I hope you know that I
value the usefulness of these lists and appreciate all you do to keep them
current. I apologize for being so abrupt. To help me understand:
- Is the list-maintainer a volunteer position?
- Do we anticipate volunteers to maintain the new lists?
I think volunteers can be reliable and very useful to nonprofits like ours.
If that is our plan, is it documented? Maybe a note to say "the list is
maintained by volunteers, please report any problems." And also include a
link to a volunteer opportunity. .
Thanks again for the information Shadi and for your patience with me.
We are the last days of lead up to AccessU, plates are spinning and I guess
the diplomacy one just fell off and crashed on the ground!
