Subject: [#829] Linear reading order should be level 1



In mapping HTML techniques to the guidelines, the techniques working
group
mapped linearization of documents to the first level 3 success criterion
in
guideline 2.4 [1]. Although this seemed to be the appropriate mapping,
we
believe this should be a level 1 issue, not a level 3 issue. Therefore
we
propose that this success criterion be moved to level 1.

Roberto Scano:
I agree with Michael. Without guarantee of linearization of the
contents, how can we assure to people that use screen readers to
understand the contents?
