 Greetings,


Suggested rework of "Reduce Site Maintenance" from "Technical Factors
for Consideration in a Business Case for Web Accessibility" at
http://www.w3.org/WAI/EO/Drafts/bcase/tech.html


I specified the technologies in the last bullet because most people
won't have a clue what technologies you are talking about.  At least
this way they have a starting point and search out info on the
technologies easily.


"The latest versions of W3C technologies ....have accessibility
features built in" came from
http://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG10-CORE-TECHS/#access-reviewed  Is this
accurate?


Like Henk, I wonder about including the word "mobile" with devices.  I
am also wondering about using "repurposed" instead of "repackaged" in
the last bullet item.



Charmane

Reduce Site Maintenance

</bold>Implementing relevant WCAG design techniques may reduce time
spent on site development and maintenance. This efficiency may be
reflected in manpower and direct cost to the organization.


<bold>  *  </bold>Update and redesign time may be reduced by using
style sheets, appropriate existing markup language, or text in place of
images. (Checkpoint 3.1)


<bold>  *  </bold>Writing documents and identifying the published
formal grammar by including a DOCTYPE statement will facilitate
efficient debugging with automated validation tools. (Checkpoint 3.2)


<bold>  *  </bold>Controlling layout and presentation through a style
sheet allows changes to affect the entire website at once rather than
repeating the identical change in separate files. (Checkpoint 3.3)


<bold>  *  </bold>The latest versions of W3C technologies (such as
MathML, XHTML, XML, RDF, SMIL, CSS, XSL, XSLT, and PNG) have
accessibility features built in.  Using them facilitates web content
repackaging to suit different displays, browsers, and devices without
the need to create additional reformatted pages. (Checkpoint 11.1)
