Thread:Talk:Groups/Proposals/Accessibility Tracking/AffCom questions/reply

I can readily answer your questions in a few lines.
 * The core people behind the application are members of the Swiss foundation «Access for all», see link under "Related" and partners of the TAO project, especially students and employees of ‚Bern Universtiy of Applied Sciences‘.
 * The important thing to know is that the goal of this group is to broaden the circle of contributors for accessibility concerns worldwide. We still are looking for new contributors, so by networking activities at the Wikimania in HK.
 * Hence, the User Group shall serve as an information and coordination platform for all kinds of activities regarding accessibility improvements of MediaWiki and Wikipedia.
 * How many?: See the hopefully constantly growing number of Contributors. To date, the large portion of work on the Group was done by myself. Hope this will change.
 * For sure to mention RexxS, Dodoïste, Alolita Sharma, Sharihareswara (WMF). All of these people have already been into accessibility. Beat Estermann engaged in the TAO project.
