[Accessibility_sig] Accessibility_sig Digest, Vol 26, Issue 4

[Andrea Hill]

I think they have some really smart ideas in that document.  (no frames,
whoo hoo!) However, I worry that there is already some murkiness between
Section508, WCAG1.0, WCAG2.0 and now this. I just worry there are getting to
be too many approaches out there, and it will further make it difficult for
people to decide on a standard and work towards meeting it. The
inconsistencies between the documents may also serve as an excuse for
organizations not to pursue a standard of accessibility at all, since there
are obviously diverging opinions on the matter.

I'd be interested to find out what people think about this being released,
and Joe Clark then announcing he is retiring from accessibility work...
