Charles says: My hope for Silver is that it is as technology agnostic as possible – regardless of what section of a document or whether it is normative or informative. The guideline is to support people. David responds: I understand that Silver is moving toward non-testable/non-measurable Guidelines with things like "“no digital content should be restricted by a specific viewing context” and the measurability being at the method level. If you are proposing the methods also be technologically agnostic and that no technology specific requirements are in SIlver, then it sounds like we're back to separate non normative technology specific techniques hanging off those methods, which sounds a lot like WCAG 2.0. Unless you are saying "lets just omit techniques for HTML, PDF etc. and hand them technology neutral statements and let them figure it out for themselves in their technology."
