I can agree with them to a degree, and maybe... this will fix the stupid thing with everything being considered "accessible" if it's in a .PDF and can be read by acrobat, when what we should have is a .rtf document, which would allow for formatting, but would render the document with us having the ability to fill them out.
I don't know if I like these guys running the show sometimes they do a decent enough "wake up call" to a agency or organization, but a lot of times they go off half assed, and only stir up resentment. 

*shrug*, I'm still not sure what to make of it.

thanks for the information though!
