I'm not used to reading law in English, so this is all a bit hard for me to parse, but I'm having trouble finding the section that prescribes the addition of accessibility features to all software written for any purpose.
Say I am a British person who decides to make a some common piece of software, like a spreadsheet, and offer it for download on the internet. Am I required by law to make it accessible? And if, for instance, the provision of accessibility features would require thousands of hours of redevelopment, does that fall under "reasonable adjustments"?
I understand that the moment my software becomes required for someone's job, for instance, there might be a problem, but a few posts up it was implied that making software without accessibility features was in itself illegal in some way, and that just sounds doesn't sound right to me.
