[Athen] Section 508 & a new Voluntary Product Accessibility Template (VPAT) - Suggestions from state gov & higher ed.

[Bourne, Sarah (MASSIT)]

Thank you for sharing that, Jennifer.  As one of the signatories, I should have to do so myself!
I would like to encourage any of you who rely on VPATs as part of your process for acquiring accessible tech to consider adding your signature.  Or feel free to crib the parts you agree with and submit yourself at the ITI website.  There are links on this page for seeing their proposed VPAT v. 2 and a survey for feedback: http://www.itic.org/policy/accessibility/
