= Requirements =

== Accessibility ==

The interface will comply with the following web standards:

 * [[http://www.w3.org/WAI/|Web Accessibility Initiative (WAI)]]
 * [[http://www.w3.org/WAI/intro/wcag.php|Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG)]]
 * [[http://www.w3.org/WAI/intro/aria.php|Accessible Rich Internet Applications Suite (WAI-ARI)]]

== Design Pattern ==

There is no design catalog for the web user interface. We need to develop one.<<BR>> It should work with the logos used in MM2 and maybe the colours should be similiar to help people recognize Mailman.

== Navigation Structure ==

The navigation structure complies with the [[../global requirements|general navigation structure]]. <<BR>>

=== messages and notifications ===

Help and information text should be present in the HTML code, but hidden by !JavaScript to help people focus on their task. A hidden message should be represented by an icon. On mouse-over the message should be revealed. On mouse-out it should hide the message again.

People who don't use !JavaScript will have help messages available too - they get to see them all at once.
