Set of software

We have only 4 SC left 

all of the deal with sets

we resolved the document side by defining set of documents.

For the software side a "set of software" was proposed but there was a question raised as to whether there was software that met that the definition.

I raised the question during a briefing in WCAG meeting and Robin Tuttle from Boing spoke up and said that she had worked on software that met the definition. 

She scheduled a  meeting when people said they wanted to see it -- but no one made it. So I asked her for screen shots.   

Here is a link to a powerpoint of the software.

I would like to again propose that we just adopt the definition of software that we developed and close these last 4 items. 

There may not be many examples of this -- but it wasn’t hard to find the first one.     Just a poll of the two working groups turned up one. 

At any rate, we all agree that there don't seem to be many -- so this one won't come up very often.   And we all agree that we would not make this guideline for sets of software if we were making guidelines (but would instead talk about inside the software).   But we were told we can't change the SC or ignore the word set... so I propose we adopt the definition since there are such things, and close these.
