[WG: Accessibility] Reminder: Accessibility WG Teleconference Thursday at 2:00PM EDT

[Neal Caidin]

Thanks Matt!

Hey all, we could use some increased participation on the Accessibility
group. Email me or Matt if you are interested or just let us know if
accessibility is important to your institution. This could help us with
future planning.

Best Regards,
Neal Caidin
Sakai Community Coordinator
