Apologies for this not being in the thread. 1. Another possibility for conformance which is an amalgamation of a few of the approaches already put forward is. Create a 'Minimum Standard' of accessibility. In order for a site to be considered accessible a site must meet this minimum standard. A predetermined number of Guidelines. It is possible to exceed the 'Minimum Standard' by adhering to the guidelines which exist beyond the 'Minimum Standard'. The 'Minimum Standard' should be high (higher than current Single A). This approach is similar to that used in New Zealand for building accessibility. It has the advantage of being conceptually very simple and also of raising the 'Minimum Bar'. 2. Any Level of Conformance must be able to respond to the swift level of technological change by either being easy to review or as independent as possible from the underlying technology.
