It's important that we clarify that WCAG is *not* done yet. And WCAG 1.0 is still it.

Some people may choose to stick with WCAG 1.0, and not move to WCAG 2.0. :( They are two different specs.

Based on TF feedback, it's important to release this soon, and not wait until 2.0 is Rec. So we need to write it for today. In the requirements/changelog doc, you can make notes on how we might want to edit the doc after WCAG 2.0 is req.
