 of the nature of the W3C specification development process, WAI cannot be 
certain

will remain the latest approved version at least through the beginning of 
2005.

WCAG 2.0 Working Draft Documents

WCAG 2.0

The main
WCAG 2.0
document applies to all Web content; it is not specific to any one 
technology.

WCAG 2.0 is organized around four design principles for Web accessibility:
Content must be perceivable
Interface elements in the content must be operable
Content and controls must be understandable
Content must be robust enough to work with current and future Web 
technologies

Under each principle are guidelines that define how the principle applies in 
a specific area.

Under each guideline are success criteria, definitions, benefits, and 
examples. Success criteria are testable statements to further define the 
guideline
and to determine conformance.
