Thread: Accessibility Issues with PostgreSQL pgAdmin 1.22.2

Hello Laura,

The version of PostgreSQL pgAdmin you evaluated is more than a year out of date 
and has been replaced by a newer major version.

Please go to https://www.pgadmin.org/download/ and evaluate PostgreSQL pgAdmin 4 
v2.0 instead to see if that meets your needs.

If you have any requests such as to ensure the product conforms to your 
accessibility requirements, you will need to make them against pgAdmin 4.

The version 1.22 you were evaluating is obsolete.

Thank you.

Thanks Duncan. 

This version was given to me by the folks here at OBIM who I believe got the information from the AWS marketplace. Of
coursethis request and the information in it may very well have been out of date to begin with. 
 

I will work with the requestors and the folks at OAST to see about moving to the most recent version of pgAdmin 4  and
lookinto an accessibility evaluation of it. 
 

If we still encounter accessibility issues, I assume we can send any issues we find to this same list. Please let me
knowotherwise. 
 

Thank you again for all of you r help. I really appreciate it.

I did think it strange that the images in the document had Postgres 7.4 as the 
DBMS. -- Darren Duncan
