I don't recall it either. I think that what the current draft says is:

1) Assistive technology is a general term that includes software and
hardware.
2) Dependent user agent is one type of AT that depends on other UAs for
input
   (and some rendering?)

I'd like AT to appear in the glossary and in the introduction once (as
the
umbrella for Dependent UAs). After that, dependent UA should appear
everywhere
else.
