*Apologies for cross posting*
We would like to invite you to a free accessibility 'doing' event that
DevCSI and Full Measure are running on June 21/22. This will be 2 days
of practical and hands-on working on real world accessibility problems.
We'll also be creating interesting accessibility features or assistive
technology using open development techniques.
A dynamic mixture of users, specialists, FE/HE developers and other
interested folk will share knowledge and experience while working on
challenges and innovative solutions. The actual topics discussed and
worked on will be selected on the day, after a brainstorming session.
There will be opportunities for pre-event discussion on the mailing
list. We're also having keynotes and lighting talks.
We're providing one night accommodation and there is an evening meal so
you can work late if you feel like it.
Full details of the event on the DevCSI website, where you should
register. Numbers are restricted so I advise early registration.
