According to the folks at Slashdot, Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 2.0 Now Final, we have some new guidelines on web accessibility
from the standards-grind-slow dept.
“It has been going on nine years now, but finally there are formal standards for Web accessibility for technologies other than HTML. They ask that you start with the press release (lots of links), but regulars might be more entertained by the last time WCAG made the front page here. Many folks here will point out that web accessibility is old hat, and by implication this is hardly news, but if you do Web development for any government organization, you should expect that accessibility is a base requirement. The Section 508 standards are to be updated (relatively) soon too.”
I am not sure what it means for intermediate accessiblity, but we’ll see.
