Subject: RE: [office-comment] RE: OpenDocument 1.2v7-02: Table of Contents - Accessibility
Think about someone having to listen to that from a text-to-speech system when they are not out to read XML Markup but to read the specification and find something that they are not intimately familiar with. (I suppose one would have to search the document(s) rather than browse, but why impose such a penalty.) By the way, I feel that penalty without requiring assistive technology. My concern is that this is a human usability concern, and it is exacerbated when accessibility comes into the picture. [I am not religious about this, some others may be and should probably be consulted. It is a suggestion and I thank you for your thoughtful exploration.] - Dennis [PS: I am on the office-comment list now. Please don't send a duplicate directly to me as well. Now if I can just train my junk mail filter to file these for me, when there appears to be no single "From" or "Sender" I will be confident not to miss any. The funny part is that arriving mail that appears to be sent by me automatically goes to junk mail because (1) I rarely do that and (2) spammers have misappropriated my return address as a fake sender.] -----Original Message----- From: Patrick Durusau [mailto:patrick@durusau.net] Sent: Sunday, May 18, 2008 08:20 To: dennis.hamilton@acm.org Cc: ODF Comments List Subject: Re: [office-comment] RE: OpenDocument 1.2v7-02: Table of Contents Dennis, Dennis E.

How would that be different from an accessibility situation where someone is reading xml markup in an example? Or simply inline in a paragraph? You may have a valid point and I am simply not understanding it yet. Hope you are having a great weekend! Patrick
