developers like Jeremy Keith, Christian Heilmann and Steve Faulkner.

Here is the blurb:

Accessibility 2.0: a million flowers bloom
25th of April 2008

AbilityNet are delighted to welcome you to our accessibility event of
the year!

Focussing on the accessibility of Web 2.0 online applications, this
conference boasts some of the best experts from across the industry.

They will be looking at practical solutions to the Web 2.0 accessibility
problems, showing cutting edge techniques.  We want to make it a very
practical day, so that you will come away knowing what you need to do,
and where you need to focus to make sure you give access to all users.

Accessibility 2.0 will bring together experts from the Uk's leading
disability charities and some of the leading lights of the web industry!
There'll also be an opportunity to take part in a debate during our
round table session for wider discussion.

Why a million flowers bloom?
This phrase has been used by T.V. Raman, a Google Research Scientist, to
describe the current wave of creativity and innovation brought about by
the development of web applications.
