RE: Re: Let's add an approved date field to Failures and Techniques

Hi Jason, 

Yes.  As failures are hard to mint, and David is calling out a need for more,  my 'warning' suggestion is maybe a way of meeting the need without doing normative or quasi normative work. So this suggestion would be firmly in guidance and non normative space. 

Tbh, that we don't have lots of hardcore failures may also be a good sign rather than indicate some dearth in WCAG. FWIW,  I'm not convinced this thread does call out a substantial problem but if there is real need we will aim to address it. 

Regarding WCAG.next topics,  in general things we cannot incorporate in current work can be looked at in future versions. 

Thanks 

Josh
