Comments Welcome on W3C User Agent Accessibility Guidelines 2.0 Draft

The W3C WAI User Agent Accessibility Working Group, in which I participate, is looking for your comments on the current draft of UAAG 2.0.  Within the document, you will find specific areas that we are seeking comment on.

User agent, if you are not familiar with it, is the term used by W3C to describe what we more commonly call a Web browser, but it can also apply to media players and other software that provides a user interface to Web content.

UAAG 2.0 will eventually replace the UAAG 1.0 guidelines, which became a W3C Recommendation in 2002. Much has changed on the Web since the release of 1.0 and the current working draft is intended to bring the accessibility guidelines for user agent developers up to date.

Comments should be sent to the WAI UA public comment email address, public-uaag2-comments@w3.org by April 22, 2009.
