Dear Julian Rickards, Thank you for your comments on the 17 May 2007 Public Working Draft of the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 2.0 (WCAG 2.0 http://www.w3.org/TR/2007/WD-WCAG20-20070517/). The WCAG Working Group has reviewed all comments received on the May draft, and will be publishing an updated Public Working Draft shortly. Before we do that, we would like to know whether we have understood your comments correctly, and also whether you are satisfied with our resolutions. Please review our resolutions for the following comments, and reply to us by 19 November 2007 at public-comments-wcag20@w3.org to say whether you are satisfied. Note that this list is publicly archived. Note also that we are not asking for new issues, nor for an updated review of the entire document at this time. Please see below for the text of comments that you submitted and our resolutions to your comments. Each comment includes a link to the archived copy of your original comment on http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-comments-wcag20/, and may also include links to the relevant changes in the WCAG 2.0 Editor's Draft of May-October 2007 at http://www.w3.org/WAI/GL/WCAG20/WD-WCAG20-20071102/ Thank you for your time reviewing and sending comments. Though we cannot always do exactly what each commenter requests, all of the comments are valuable to the development of WCAG 2.0. Regards, Loretta Guarino Reid, WCAG WG Co-Chair Gregg Vanderheiden, WCAG WG Co-Chair Michael Cooper, WCAG WG Staff Contact On behalf of the WCAG Working Group ---------------------------------------------------------- Comment 1: WCAG 2 reads well Source: http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-comments-wcag20/2007Jun/0246.html (Issue ID: 2296) ---------------------------- Original Comment: ---------------------------- I have no real comments about the WCAG 2 document other than to say that it is easily read and understood and seems to meet the goals of the people for whom it has been design, both users and developers. --------------------------------------------- Response from Working Group: --------------------------------------------- Thank you for taking the time to comment on WCAG. A lot of time and effort has gone into the draft and it has been difficult at times to find the best language to express the requirements and advice when it needs to apply across such a wide (and expanding) variety of technologies. We think that, although not perfect, this draft is a significant advance in the right direction. We look forward to new research that is being done on the Web and on Accessibility that will allow us to go even further in future efforts.
