I don't understand this. My original comment was related to the fact that in my first proposal I pointed out that graphic images of text have some features of text content (like the fact that they rely on written communication) and some features of non-text content (like the fact that they are not able to be rendered as characters on the screen which can also be spoken by a speech synthesiser...) I think that this should not be in the definition (as Kynn pointed out) but should be in the relevant places in the various guidelines - primarily in WCAG as far as I can tell. cheers Charles On Fri, 3 Aug 2001, Al Gilman wrote: At 03:14 PM 2001-08-03 , gregory j. rosmaita wrote: >CMN: I think the "pictures of words" bit should go back to the WCAG group. > >GJR: which part? that pictures of words ain't words? > ><span lang="franglais"> ceci n'est pas une pipe, non? </span> > >no, it's not a pipe -- it's a question... > a) everything that generates debate in XTECH should go back to the affected groups -- here at least GL and UA -- who may confirm or deny acquiescence in the proposal of the intergroup caucus. But perhaps after giving XTECH some time to settle on a provisional resolution of the question. Cf. conference committee in a bicameral legislature such as in the U.S. b) The picture forms of the above exchange include, but are not necessarily limited to, a Nassi-Schneiderman chart of the logic integrating multiple senses of 'pipe' with assertions by Gregory and Charles. Or Sean could RDF it and that makes a graph that one then decorates with icons and arranges tastefully on the page...
