Hi All,

Today, there was an announcement about open sourcing our accessibility tools including aDesigner for ODF via Eclipse.org.

http://www-03.ibm.com/press/us/en/pressrelease/22777.wss

We created a new project for accessibility tools called "Accessibility Tools Framework (ACTF)", and I and Mike Paciello will co-lead the project. We will opensource our ODF accessibility checker functions, such as the accessibility guideline validation and low-vision simulation for presentation documents based on image processing. The tool uses OpenOffice.org as the ODF renderer. At this moment, we have not published our source code yet, but you can try all functions by using alphaWorks version.

Enjoy!
