Hi In issue 145 <https://github.com/w3c/coga/issues/145> we are asked add a section on different groups who also benefit from our work. They also add they would like a definition of cognitive accessibility. We never use the term cogantive accessibility but... I suggest 1.we change the name of "Background about People with Learning and Cognitive Disabilities and the Web" to "Background about People with Learning and Cognitive Disabilities, Accessibility and the Web" 2 change the sentence " issues can also result in cognitive difficulties, such as difficulty focusing, cognitive fatigue or reduced memory." to " Other groups who will benefit include: • People with Mental health issues that cause cognitive difficulties, such as difficulty focusing, cognitive fatigue or reduced memory, • people under a temporary stress, • people who do not know the language or culture of the country well, • people with limited technical knowledge or are new to The Web." 3. I am a bit concerned that they did not think we were including groups like ADHD. Should we add a clarification in the abstract? such as This includes Cognitive Disabilities, Learning Disabilities (LD), Neurodiversity, Intellectual Disabilities and Specific Learning Disabilities (alternatively , we could also just link to our glossary definition) all the best Lisa
