    When people talk about Accessibility, I think of Section 508 and allowing
    blind/disabled people to use an application. I put this small test of Atlas
    together for a blind friend of mine to test. It is at
    http://216.187.235.116/atlassection508test/. It seems that the applications
    runs find and he is able to see/hear the content using JAWS
    (www.freedomscientific.com). So, the question is, what's the cause of the
    accessibility discussion with Atlas? What are the issues? I hear
    discussion but not statement of the issues.
