Hello,

Our university has updated its technology accessibility policy (IRM-008) to meet changes to federal compliance under Title II of the ADA, now expecting software to meet at least WCAG 2.1 AA, with a clear roadmap toward 2.2 AA. So, I will now be requesting updated VPATs that demonstrate either compliance with the latest standards or a documented development roadmap to achieve it.

Could you please provide an updated VPAT or any relevant information regarding your compliance roadmap?

Thank you,

Hi Xiaoming,

Sorry, I don't know anything about VPAT specifically but as you may know we are rewriting the Dataverse UI in React and if you go to https://github.com/IQSS/dataverse-frontend you'll find a button called "accessibility" that shows that all tests are currently passing.

I hope that helps!

Phil
