The problem as I see it is that they are not being adopted as "guides" but rather as "requirements"; the helpful checkpoints that can be figured out by anyone with just a smidgen of common sense can be easily twisted into firm, hard checkpoints that MUST be satisfied in order to achieve a "Double-AA compliance" rating. This is a big problem -- the Single-A, Double-AA, Triple-AAA system does not have a caveat saying "you can still achieve Double-AA rating if you do almost everything and use common sense in what you do and don't choose to do." -- Kynn Bartlett mailto:kynn@hwg.org President, HTML Writers Guild http://www.hwg.org/ AWARE Center Director http://aware.hwg.org/Received on Sunday, 18 July 1999 14:05:57 GMT
