Hello everyone,

A new draft of the ATAG guidelines is up at:

http://jan.rcat.utoronto.ca/public/auwg/guidelines.html

The main changes over the document as it stood after the F2F are:
(1) a much revamped Glossary
(2) some text in 1.4.2 explaining that newer versions of ISO16071 can
be used as they come along.
(3) moving the look and feel checkpoint into a "Note to Implementors" at 
the end of Guideline 4.

Notes on the Glossary changes:

(a) almost every word has changed
(b) some words still like definitions
(c) several new terms have been added as a result of the F2F
(d) I tried to rely on Tim's work as much as possible. 
(http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/w3c-wai-au/2004OctDec/0020.html)
(e) I also tried to have other Glossaries open as I was working: WCAG 
2.0, UAAG 1.0 and the WAI glossary 
(http://www.w3.org/WAI/GL/Glossary/printable.html).

Please send comments or revised glossary drafts to the list.

Cheers,
Jan

BTW: I have CC'd some EO people who are interested in the Glossary work.
