Right. I really would rather have them be one big section with 10 or so subpoints, because that allows people to build their OWN mental divisions as they read them, rather than us forcing something on them. And presumably it allows for education and outreach materials which may target one specific group to format things as they wish, too. (I'm assuming that while the normative form of all WAI deliverables is the way they're defined in the working groups, these specifics may be rewritten in the future at some time, e.g. the WCAG --> Quicktips.) So, have we proven that all divisions are arbitrary and it's better just to stick with a straight list yet? :) -- Kynn Bartlett <kynn@hwg.org> President, Governing Board Member HTML Writers Guild <URL:http://www.hwg.org> Director, Accessible Web Authoring Resources and Education Center <URL:http://aware.hwg.org/>
