Hi
Someone sent me this link to a story on PAS 78 which are new guidelines
on making accessible websites and published by the British Standards
Institution.

Hope this is helpful.
Cheers
Graham

Subject: Next Meeting
Happy New Year Folks!
The next meeting is scheduled for the 3rd of March. Please let me know
if you will be able to attend ASAP so that I can get an idea of numbers.
Thoughts for discussion topics :
- Nedstats discussion (Aberdeen)
- Dspace (Aberdeen)
- Update from JISC Digital Curation Conference (Aberdeen)
- Update from Internet Librarian (Aberdeen)
- CMS Projects (Strathclyde, Glasgow, SAC)
- CMS Purchasing (Caledonian)
- syndication of content : RSS, Atom, Staff Exchange Protocol (Adam
Smith)
- Mobile web publishing (Adam Smith)
- Digital Asset Management (Adam Smith)
- ASP.NET 2.0 beta (Adam Smith)
- Staff Telephone directory (Strathclyde)
- Who is responsible for ensuring that your site stays accessible, do
they have sufficient resources to carry out the checks and do they have
the power to force (in the nicest possible way obviously) content
providers to fix broken pages? (Caledonian)
- Who is your website actually for? (Strathclyde)
If you'd like to add anything to the list or suggest any topics of
interest for our slightly more formal presentations, please let me know.
Don't forget to let me know if you'll be coming along...
Regards,
Duncan
