Re: translation request

hi,
Polish version of WCAG 2.0 is available at 
http://tlumaczenia-angielski.info/wcag20/w3.orgTRWCAG20-27-04-2006.html

There is still Appendix A "Glossary" that remains to
be translated. Since WCAG 2.0 introduces some new
terms, I believe it will be prudent to wait for some
feedback before proceeding with that part of the
document.
cheers,
andy
