This AccessForAll Standard is being completely revised to better support the development of the GPII. In particular, this Part 2 will be replaced by a Part 2 that establishes a registry for common terms to describe the functional needs of individual users and the related accessibility characteristics of resources. There will also be a new Part 3 that will provide an Application Profile for immediate use by those describing either the needs of a user or the facilities of a resource.

JTC 1 believes that the work in the area of information communication and technology standardization for accessibility is a major undertaking, encompassing many international, regional and local interests. Additionally, there are significant standards efforts taking place in ISO, IEC, ITU and the national and regional standards bodies as well as various consortia/fora and user groups.
In response to JTC 1's long term business plan and international, regional, national, and end user requirements in the area of accessibility, the Special Working Group on Accessibility was established at the October 2004 JTC 1 Plenary meeting in Berlin.
