definitely. I just wanted to clarify that if a customerr asks for an estimate and they are concerned about WAI compliance, it should not drive your estimate up very much. Also, if you have an understanding of what it takes to make a site WAI compliant, being able to tell a potential client that your estimate/proposal is for a WAI compliant site, might mean the difference between their choosing your services over the competition!

They outline the answers to the question of who this effects very well. It also addesses how to make code WAI compliant... which does not really take as long as you'd think... not if you account for it in the begining and have some coding standards in place. Anyone who tells you it takes a lot more man-hour time to develop something that is WAI compliant is just wrong. What does take a little bit longer is Q/A... obviously if you want to comply with something (WAI or ANY OTHER STANDARD OUT THERE) it is going to mean testing to make sure you comply. The actual coding bit doesn't have to take much (or any) longer. There are also, like I said, a bunch of standard practices you can use that will tend to result in compliant code. ~Simon Simon Horwith CTO, Etrilogy Ltd.

What is the law regarding commercial / eCommerce sites as it stands now. I am confused over legality and whether it is discrimination yet if an ecommerce site is not accessible. the act seems to say that anybody providing a service to the public. does this mean eCommerce sites?
