Cheryl Langdon-Orr (CLO):Ariel / or other staff ...If you can please copy any links from the AC Chat also into the Caption Chat
Ariel Liang:very good point Cheryl. I have taken notes on this and will do this from now on
Maureen Hilyard:Great work Ariel and team
Ariel Liang:Thank you Cheryl and Maureen! Got the help from fellow At-Large Staff as well for migrating content in the wiki
Glenn McKnight:I assume Staff is best to comment on this issue since it;'s a legal responsibility of all non profits in the US.
Maureen Hilyard:I don't think Glenn has a mike - he's at a conference
Glenn McKnight:Just because i brought it up doesn't mean you can allocate it to me

Glenn McKnight:I have stated that I am at security conference in Washington
Greg Shatan:FYI, the US DOJ is seeking comments right now on web accessibiity regulations. The request relates to state and local govt sites, but the answers will doubtless be transferred to the Title III private sector regulations.

Maureen Hilyard:Perhaps a review to ensure that these do cover all the bases
