Disabilities for Inclusion

From Silver

One of the goals of Silver is to include a broader range of disabilities and disabilities where the technology changes have created specific barriers that may not have existed at the time the WCAG 2.0 was written.

At this time, this list is a placeholder of brainstorming ideas and is not a definitive list of what will be included in Silver. Please contact the task force if you wish to add to this list.
