https://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=24047 --- Comment #4 from Laura Carlson <laura.lee.carlson@gmail.com> --- (In reply to Leif Halvard Silli from comment #1) > The phrase ”non-normative“ is standard vocabulary in w3c specs. For instance > the ReSpec spec production tool inserts the phrase “This section is > non-normative“ just beneath the heading of sections that are not normative. WCAG 2.0 uses the word "Informative". And they define the term as well as "normative" http://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG20/#informativedef http://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG20/#normativedef It might be clearer and worth considering replacing "non-normative" with the word "informative" and link to the WCAG 2.0 definitions. btw, Ian wrote some useful info on the kinds of statements in specs. He used the phrase: "Informative descriptions". http://ln.hixie.ch/?start=1140242962&count=1 -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the QA Contact for the bug.
