At the 13th (1998) International Unicode Conference in San Jose the
keynote speaker was Judy Brewer on Accessibility and Universal Design of
the Web. She was (is?) Director, Web accesibility initiative international
program office, of the World Wide Web Consortium. I don't have her
current address. Someone at the Unicode Office may.
