I was think­ing of ask­ing Nick to do a lit­tle inter­view about his upcom­ing Web Stan­dards Group presentation…

…but he’s posted up such a good overview on his own blog that I’ll just point every­one over there: Acces­si­ble forms and more.

Nick explains his back­ground as such:

Before I started build­ing web sites for a liv­ing, I was a pol­icy offi­cer with the then Min­istry of Fair Trad­ing and I spent a lot of time work­ing with legislation.

The first time I read that sen­tence, I thought it said “I was a police offi­cer”… I was try­ing to imag­ine Nick in uni­form. Not an image that really fits!

That aside, Nick’s pre­sen­ta­tion should be great, I’m really look­ing for­ward to it. Just a reminder, the details are:

Web Stan­dards Group Meet­ing, Perth
