New Checkpoint



Second Required Success Criteria for 1.6



We don't anywhere talk about a checkpoint regarding background color.  I
think that we need to have one and I think it should be required.



Suggest the following.



Text that is presented at checkpoint 2 - text that is presented over a
background color or gray scale has a mechanism that allows the text to be
presented in a fashion that there is a greater than ______ contrast between
text and background color as measured by ______.
