RE: another response to reply today: home page ready for EOWG

Michael - I agree with your comments. Somehow I forgot the larger picture
and was considering the WAI home page as the root. 

I am concerned that the WAI page be inviting and that content be clear,
though I think we can make it so with inviting and clear design.

Regards,

Blossom

I disagree with the W3C and WAI navigation entries not being needed.

-The redesign is going to be leveraged by other initiatives in the W3C. 
It has the potential to become the standard UI and navigation system 
for several W3C sites.
- WAI is a child of the W3C, we should make is easy for users to 
understand the relationship of WAI to the W3C and other sites.
- We need to allow users to easy and consistently navigate up and down 
the hierarchy, giving a strong reason to have the same navigation 
system on the homepage.

I want the redesign to be one piece of an entire navigational system. 
Not a one off to be used for just the WAI site.

Just my take on things.
