Task Group Members Page

This is the front page of the Task Group members working space. If you can contribute to this work, please contact the chair of the Task Group via the DC Accessibility Community list. The commitment to contribute involves a commitment to regular communication as well as doing some work between meetings. Meetings will probably be fortnightly and held at times that best suit the membership - this is always difficult as we welcome people from around the world but cannot make the time zones tidy!
