Hi Nicholas > Raphael, to make sure I understand. What you are proposing is: > - main challenges (as already in Stephan's proposal) > - technologies plus and minus (as already in Stephan's proposal) > - relation between challenges and technology + on-going innovations and R&D outlook > > If so I like it very much as putting the technology before the challenges might be a bit confusing (as the technology addresses already these challenges). I believe that challenges and technologies are relatively separated, and each item of each section should have a part on on-going innovation and R&D outlook. What belongs to the challenges section are the characteristics of the delivery context, but are not directly related to the technology, and sometimes the answer is not in the technology field. one example: illiteracy: if you want to deliver e.g. a service of weather forecast to illiterate people, i believe you could find in the related entry in the challenges section - what's possible today - use literate intermediaries (not a technology solution) - use voice applications (specific technology recommendation) - use graphics representation if applicable (this is not specific to a technology, graphic is a feature of more than one technology: web browser, a dedicated j2me apps, widgets,... ) - on longer term (R&D track) - define standardized way of designing culturally relevant meaningful icons - define guidelines to make web content accessible to illiterate people mixing icons and voice annotation So, personnaly, i don't think we should create the third part you are mentionning. cheers steph -- Stephane Boyera stephane@w3.org W3C +33 (0) 5 61 86 13 08 BP 93 fax: +33 (0) 4 92 38 78 22 F-06902 Sophia Antipolis Cedex, France
