Dear Eric, Eval TF, I vote not to allow error margins - for the reason I outlined in my previous email on this subject. Instead, I would continue to support a simple disclaimer such as "The evaluator has tried their hardest to minimise the margin for error by actively looking for all content relevant to each technique being assessed which might have caused a fail." Occam's razor - simplest is best... Alistair On 19 Jan 2012, at 13:58, Velleman, Eric wrote: > Dear all, > > For the Telco today: > We have seen a lot of discussion on 5.5 Error Margin. As indicated in the discussion, it also depends on other things like the size of the sample, the complexity of the website and the qualities of the evaluator, use of tools (for collecting pages, making a first check) etc. etc. But we need to be agree on: > > Do we allow errors or not? > > If not, life is easy > If yes, we need to describe under what conditions > > Kindest regards, > > Eric > > ========================= > Eric Velleman > Technisch directeur > Stichting Accessibility > Universiteit Twente > > Oudenoord 325, > 3513EP Utrecht (The Netherlands); > Tel: +31 (0)30 - 2398270 > www.accessibility.nl / www.wabcluster.org / www.econformance.eu / > www.game-accessibility.com/ www.eaccessplus.eu > > Lees onze disclaimer: www.accessibility.nl/algemeen/disclaimer > Accessibility is Member van het W3C > ========================= >
