WAI mourns the passing of John Slatin, who was Co-Chair of the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) Working Group in 2005 and 2006. Through his persistence, patience, and keen insight, John contributed greatly to the field of accessibility, especially to the development of the WCAG 2.0. He will be fondly remembered and greatly missed by his colleagues at W3C/WAI and in the broader accessibility community. For those who want more information, John and his wife Anna have chronicled his experiences on his blog "Leukemia Letters" at http://leukemialetters.blogspot.com/ , and information about services will be posted there.
