Overall, I noticed that the focus of section 508 at this year's FOSE conference seems to be on individuals with visual impairments. The second seminar only had a one-sentence mention of the captioning tools available to caption multimedia on the web, and the presenter spent the majority of his time discussing various techniques to make web pages more accessible to visually impaired individuals. There was a vendor who did exhibit a product of interest to late-deafened and hard of hearing individuals. In other words, this software allows a TTY equivalent to voice messaging systems. In conclusion, FOSE was a very educational experience.
