Proposed change to A.?.1 (my action item)

From: Jan Richards <jan.richards@utoronto.ca>
Date: Mon, 11 Jul 2005 14:24:42 -0400
Message-ID: <42D2B96A.8070607@utoronto.ca>
To: "List (WAI-AUWG)" <w3c-wai-au@w3.org>

A.?.1 Ensure that browser-accessed functionality conforms to WCAG 
[Priority RP].

PROPOSED:

Rationale: Authors must be able to have access to authoring tool 
functionality that is implemented as Web content.

Note: For non-Web-based authoring tools, this is a relatively 
straightforward requirement, likely covering only a few areas of the 
interface (i.e. Web-based help features, etc.). However, for most 
Web-based authoring tools the requirement will cover the majority of 
functionality in the tool and overlap most of the other requirements in 
Part A of the guidelines.

Techniques: ???

Success Criteria:

1. Any component of an authoring tool that is accessed by the author 
within a Web browser must conform to WCAG.

views@@ - @@a drawback is that it imposes a higher/different requirement 
than for non-Web based tools@@

Techniques: ???

Success Criteria:

1. Any component of an authoring tool that is accessed by the author 
within a Web browser must conform to WCAG.
