RE: Monday's call - The Cognitive Accessibility Task Force Teleconference

It sounds absolutely lovely. I’ll have to send my regrets for this inaugural “coffee and coga” but I’ll be happy to attend another one later!

We put a man on the moon in the 1960's. Surely we can make information technology fully accessible to people with disabilities. It can be done. It must be done. It will be done!

Hi Folks

Monday's Call is on Easter Monday this week.

I thought it would be a good time to have an informal chat about the COGA world, task force, questions Etc. in place of a regular call. (John's idea!)

John suggested calling it Coffee and COGA!

(If we like it we could end up doing it on a regular basis.)






The  teleconference information is at : COGA weekly call on the W3C Calendar <https://www.w3.org/events/meetings/0e4ea52b-ee35-44da-aec7-22160a58aa3a/#next>  (If you get stuck with this link let us know!)
Time
11 am Eastern Time
4 pm  UK Time
6 pm  Israel
9.30 pm  India

IRC access

An IRC (Internet Relay Chat) channel will be available during the call. (The server is  irc.w3.org<http://irc.w3.org/> ,The port number is 6665 )
IRC is like our chat room. You can join us on IRC simply by clicking on  http://irc.w3.org/?channels=coga
