I like its organization, and content including rationale explanations for the points included. I'd like some graphics in it, with both alt text and link to long description, to show the way to make them accessible. I'm surprised that it includes a basic delivery form of PDF as well as the html version. PDF is not the most accessible form. Internally the content allows PDF with the expectation that it can be accessible. "Use of ...PDF... is permissible if used in accordance with the standards outlined in this document." Does that mean that the presence of the html alternative means that the PDF version needn't be? >Best, >Audrey J. Gorman Regards/Harvey Bingham
