Dear Mr. Lazzaro,

the OpenDocument TC members of IBM are Nathaniel Borenstein, Robert Weir and 
Yue MA. The TC member of KOffice is David Faure. I believe they can answer 
the questions regarding the accessibility of their products better than me.

I've put all four on copy of this mail.

Best regards

Michael Brauer

OASIS OpenDocument TC chair
