It seems like most govt departments have websites with stuff on them - the accessibility of those sites is shockingly poor. As far as legislation goes, I doubt the minister for communications, information and technology and the arts even knows how to open up a word processor let alone use the internet, so I doubt there are any laws regarding accessibility arround. > -- > Cheers, > > Rick Miles > > Movement stopped is no movement, > and rest set in motion is no rest. > > Written on Prickle-Prickle, the 65th of Bureaucracy, 3171 > http://www.members.optusnet.com.au/~rickfrm/ > > > _______________________________________________ > Melbourne Linux Users Group (Australia) > Edit your settings: http://lists.mlug.org.au > -- Administrator of the Melbourne Linux User Group If you want a GMAIL invite, please please please take one off my hands Theatrical Sound and Lighting designer/Engineer
