Thanks, John, for helping to clear up the issues surrounding abbreviations and acronyms. I was perhaps a bit hasty in sending the definitions to the list since I have proposed combining the success criteria about abbreviations (GL 3.1 L3 SC3 [1]) with the success criteria about defining words (GL 3.1 L3 SC2 [2]). Even if we do combine the success criteria I believe that we will still need the definitions of abbreviation and acronym for the techniques document (which is why I sent the definitions proposals to the list). I would like to see more discussion about the proposal to combine the two success criteria. Is this something that team B wants to move forward on? So far I have only heard from Loretta. In addition we need to determine if all instances of "a word used in a restricted manner" must be marked or only the first occurrence. Thanks for your input.
