Accessibility Kit for SharePointŪ (AKS)
HiSoftware has joined efforts with Microsoft to
create the Accessibility Kit for SharePoint or AKS which
provides reusable tools and components as well as
documentation and tutorials to ensure that MOSS provides
a basic solution for accessibility. The intellectual
property, jointly owned by HiSoftware and Microsoft, is
available as shared source code to the community through
Codeplex. AKS significantly reduces the time, knowledge,
and effort required to implement a SharePoint-based Web
site that conforms to the World Wide Web Consortium’s
(W3C) Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 1.0 Priority
1 and 2 checkpoints, which are collectively known as
WCAG 1.0 AA. The AKS can also be used to address the
exceptions that have been identified in the U.S.
government’s Section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act’s
Voluntary Product Accessibility Template or VPAT
documents for MOSS 2007.
