Accessible to Disabled Users
,----[ Quote ]
| As part of the program, IBM is also launching a contest that
| challenges students to propose and design open source software for
| people with disabilities. To qualify, their entries must be based on
| a new international standard, called the OpenDocument Format (ODF).
| Familiarity with ODF will be increasingly important, as the format will
| be required by 50 percent of governments and 20 percent of commercial
| organizations by 2010, according to the Gartner.
