Hi gang, As I mentioned last week, WCAG WG approved our language for Principal 4 and Guideline 4.1 at Text for Principals and Guidelines <https://sites.google.com/site/wcag2ict/edits-for-michael-post-2nd-public-draft/text-for>, but asked that we define the phrase we coined for our substitution: "accessibility services of software and assistive technology" I have tried to do that at the wiki page 'New glossary term "accessibility services of software and assistive technology" <https://sites.google.com/site/wcag2ict/edits-for-michael-post-2nd-public-draft/new-glossary-term-accessibility-services-of-software-and-assistive-technology>' Please review BOTH proposals #1 and #2 there. Proposal #1 attempts to define the entire phrase as a new term (to be added to Chapter 2 Key Terms <http://www.w3.org/TR/wcag2ict/#keyterms>). Proposal #2 instead just tries to define the first part of the phrase, "accessibility services of software". This wasn't precisely what WCAG WG asked us to do as I recall it, but I think that approach makes more sense. Andi/Mike - perhaps we might survey these two proposals for Friday? Asking folks if they prefer #1 or #2, and for whichever of the two they prefer, whether the like the language as I have put it forth or would prefer it with some changes. Thanks, Peter P.S. For reference purposes, at the bottom of the wiki page I have also copied in our modified version of "assistive technology", as well as several related terms from ISO 13066-1, which is a document Andi and I worked a lot on, with review from Gregg as part of the INCITS/ISO V2 process. -- Oracle <http://www.oracle.com> Peter Korn | Accessibility Principal Phone: +1 650 5069522 <tel:+1%20650%205069522> 500 Oracle Parkway | Redwood City, CA 94065 Green Oracle <http://www.oracle.com/commitment> Oracle is committed to developing practices and products that help protect the environment
