RE: [office-accessibility] FW: [office] Validating ODF documents -- Our role in this process?

["Carol Geyer" <carol.geyer@oasis-open.org>]

Mary's right. The TC's wiki is meant as a scratch pad for TC work. The purpose
of OpenDocument XML.org is to educate and engage the wider community. 

We have an "Assistive Technologies" page now in the OpenDocument XML.org wiki
(http://opendocument.xml.org/assistive-technologies). Anyone registered for the
site is welcome to edit that page, add links, and add new pages to the wiki.

An outline of other wiki pages is at http://opendocument.xml.org/wiki,
instructions for posting are at http://opendocument.xml.org/contribute-content,
and a tag cloud is at http://opendocument.xml.org/categories

Please let me know you have any specific questions or if I can help in any way.

Carol

Hi folks,

 

  The TC wiki is intended to be just that - for the use of the TC members to
coordinate on work items. It is not intended to be something used by the "wider
community".

 

  May I suggest that if you have wider community topics they get posted on the
ODF focus area? Carol can help with any setup issues.

 

Regards,

 

Mary

Indeed.  I'd like to see the TC's wiki expand and restructure a bit.  There is
stuff that is really only interesting to TC participants, like action items,
etc.  But then there is stuff more widely interesting to the wider community of
ODF users.   

I think as part of that it would be nice to have an Accessibility page, perhaps
with overviews/links to the ODF 1.1 Accessibility Guidelines document,  to the
ODF accessibility proofing tools, to the DAISY converter, etc.

Can we complement the contents of this starter doc with accessibility
notations/recommendations? Resources? Tools?

I don't have a login for that wiki, but these links may be useful;
