Current Status

Overall status
- Dave reviewed all of the WCAG 2.0 Guidelines document to get a better understanding of the scope of this project.
  The good news is that since we use consistent templates, forms, etc most of the code is automatically generated and we can make the code generators compliant and just check the output.
  He's modified the spreadsheet list to combine the checklist and functional steps because it was recommended to go straight to the WCAG documents.

Action items
- (Dave) Try out the proposed process on one of the forum pages - 2/16
- (Avni) Work with Emmanuelle (if she has time) to come up with simplified WCAG 2.0 AA checklist we will use - 2/16
  - http://webaim.org/standards/wcag/checklist
