New W3C working draft of accessibility guidelines
The World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) published a new public working draft of its Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 3.0 to provide new ways to evaluate web content accessibility for people with disabilities. It will concentrate on both mobile and desktop applications, and will incorporate new tests and scoring to determine accessibility. The WCAG 3.0 model is designed to support better coverage across disabilities and be easier to maintain so that the model keeps pace with accelerating technological change. New W3C guidelines are developed through the W3C process in cooperation with individuals and organisations worldwide.
