I like this idea. I know a couple of people (external) who would probably be
happy to do an accessibility review, at least from a vision perspective. I
think this is one thing that can really set apart our documentation products
from the competition. I do not have enough experience in this to chair a
committee, but I am happy to participate on one and to give opinions (as
always).

From a theorectical point of view we could start by assessing
publican's output (both documents and the website) against The W3C's Web
Content Accessibility Guidelines [1]. But I defninitely agree that a
real life review would be even more valuable.

Subject: [publican-list] RFC: Accessibility Review
Hi, it's been a long time since we have done a review of the
accessibility of our output; the web site output has never had such a
review.
I don't have time to perform or chair such a review, would anyone be
interested in chairing or participating in this effort?
I believe the web site output has the basic structure required for a
fully accessible site, however it's probable that the bits aren't
linked
to in all the correct places, or in all the correct ways.
e.g. we have a page that doesn't use javascript or objects and links
to
all the content, but is it linked to where it's required, and is the
page itself formated in a usable fashion?
Cheers, Jeff.
