Hi Hank,

I took a look, and it seems this information in our wiki has gotten a bit outdated. There was a diligent focus on accessibility during early development, but we currently don't have anyone actively pursuing this to ensure that any changes and new features comply with our stated accessibility standards (http://opencast.jira.com/wiki/display/MHDOC/Accessibility). At one time I'd say Matterhorn met these standards, but it hasn't been looked at in a while - certainly an area for growth for us.

This page in the 1.1 documentation probably provides the most complete list of accessibility features. I'm not sure why this page was removed in 1.2 and 1.3 documentation, but I'm pretty sure all of these features still exist.
http://opencast.jira.com/wiki/display/MH11/Engage+Accessibility+v1.1

I should note that accessibility efforts historically have only focused on the Engage player, not the Admin UI.

I hope that helps!

Michelle

From one of our sales accounts I have a query as to whether Matterhorn meets ADA (/Americans with Disabilities Act)/ requirements.

I'm pretty sure some of you on the original design team considered this question, so could I get some summary information?

   What user interface design elements are relevant here to meet ADA?

What other functions or features are needed within Matterhorn for ADA compliance?

Is there a Wiki page on this topic?

Any information appreciated.

Hank
