it should be highlighted that the writer of this article is a Microsoft
employee. It should also be pointed out that Microsoft obviously has not
released the names and identities of the people serving on its
accessibility board. While Microsoft has every right to keep this
information a trade or business secret, it can hardly be creadable when it
seeks publicity about its feedback mechanism but does not allow the
community to judge and hold accountable its leaders.
The leaders serving on the Microsoft Access committee have signed
non-disclosure agreements and are limited in discussing with the community
their relationship with Microsoft and how the corporation has responded to
the concerns they have raised or issues forwarded for resolution.
