I think we need to allow for the possibility that successful accomplishment of multiple techniques may be a way of meeting a particular SC. Also, isn't it true that the techniques are non-normative (not "required" - re: abstract in [1]), whereas the SC are normative, so if true I just want to make sure that this distinction is preserved in the usage document. Thanks and best wishes Tim Boland NIST [1]: http://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG20-TECHS/ At 05:45 PM 10/30/2006 +0200, you wrote: >Hi Christophe, all, > >I am sure there will be more ... so I think we need to go for it. > >Additionally, I am not sure if for every failure of a technique there >is a "failure" in the techniques document (??).. > >regards, >Vangelis > >cstrobbe wrote: >>Hi, >>Currently, the usage document [1] states: "Each each [sic] WCAG 2.0 Test >>Sample must be linked to exactly one WCAG 2.0 technique or failure." >>However, some success criteria require a combination of techniques, for >>example SC 2.4.2: "More than one way is available to locate content >>within a set of Web units..."
