EOWG planning & record keeping
On September 10, 2012, Jennifer sent:
- WAI-IG email message to the WebAIM list
- WAI-IG email message to 17 "undisclosed recipients."
- One of those recipients was Henny Swan. This message was a start toward my Action item 208. I then followed up, about three hours later, with a more personal message.
- WAI-IG message to the Public WAI-Engage email list; I highlighted the mobile business case.
