(Issue ID: LC-1138)

Backwards compatibility: There is mention of future compatibility but
nothing about backwards compatibility. Has the W3C reversed its position on
backwards compatibility?

Proposed Change:

Clarify the W3C's position on backwards compatibility

Response from Working Group:
----------------------------

Backward and forward compatibility is addressed through the analysis of
accessibility support for technologies.  The issues for the author are
similar.

Response from GSW:
----------------------------
I am happy for this issue to be closed.
