Re: Follow up from the meeting on Issue 14: timeouts

> I interpret this to mean the amount of time in the current limit. So if I
have a site with a 30 minute limit, I have “there’s a 30 minute limit”, and
then in order to satisfy 2.2.1 I have “your time is expiring, click “extend
time” if you would like another 20 minutes” and that would also serve as
notification of the new 20 minute limit.

I'm fine with that for this draft ... but if someone with a disability is
making a decision on whether they have enough time to complete the task,
then I don't think that this notification gives them what they need. In
your example they actually have 50 minutes, but might abandon the task
thinking they only have 30 minutes and don't think they can do it in that
time ...

Cheers,
David MacDonald
