Re: complete survey form - Call for Review [EOWG: Review Evaluation Resource Suite documents]

Hi Natscha,

Thank you for starting to review the Evaluation Suite and to check back on the format of your comments!

It is helpful to paste the relevant text of the sections you refer to in each comment in order to make these easier to understand. However, I your attachment I only see the original text without any description of what your comment is, and what you suggest.

Please find pasted below an example of the recommended format for sending comments, it is taken from Shawn's WBS form (sent yesterday to the group):

---
* priority: [editor's discretion]
* location: first paragraph, first sentence
* current wording: "Evaluating Web Sites for Accessibility" is a multi-page resource suite that...
* suggested revision: "Evaluating Web Sites for Accessibility" is a really, really long multi-page resource suite that...
* rationale: we should warn them up front that it's a big set of documents
---

Hope this helps!

Regards,
  Shadi
