Hello Colleagues: 

 

I greatly appreciate the work of the individuals of the World Wide Web
Consortium (W3C) who contributed to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines
(WCAG) 1.0 standards. It has been my effort to follow these standards in the
various website projects that I work on.   

 

Now WCAG 2.0 is on the horizon ( http://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG20/ ).  With WCAG
1.0 we could utilize validation tools such as web-based HiSoftware(R)
Cynthia Says(TM) tool in order to automatically check several checkpoints.
Is anyone aware of a tool that currently exists or is being developed to
automatically validate website content to the new WCAG 2.0 standards?

 

Thanks.
