Hi everyone I'm a User Experience Design (UXD) freelancer based in Melbourne, Australia. I'm passionate about usability/UCD, accessibility and free software. I'd like to contribute to LibreOffice where I can. Sorry if this is something that has already been considered but I had an idea I thought I contribute to... Does LibreOffice have a VPAT (Voluntary Product Accessibility Template)<http://www.itic.org/index.php?src=gendocs&ref=vpat&category=resources> ? I was able to find a VPAT for OpenOffice<http://www.oracle.com/us/corporate/accessibility/templates/t2313.html> . I tried to create a page on the Wiki to start creating a VPAT but had trouble creating a new page. *What's a VPAT?* In the U.S. Section 508 "bars the Federal government from procuring electronic and information technology (E&IT) goods and services that are not fully accessible to those with disabilities." (WebAIM: United States Laws: Section 508 <http://webaim.org/articles/laws/usa/rehab#s508>) The Information Technology Industry Council (ITI) <http://www.itic.org/> created VPAT as "a tool used to document a product's conformance with the accessibility standards under Section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act." (ITI - VPAT<http://www.itic.org/index.php?src=gendocs&ref=vpat&category=resources> ) Kindest regards, Scott Rippon. -- Scott Rippon Consulting User research, design and evaluation W http://www.scottrippon.com/ E Scott.Rippon@gmail.com M +61 423 302 672 -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to accessibility+help@libreoffice.org Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/www/accessibility/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
