I think the techniques should be separated from the checkpoints and guidelines, preferably in another document, but at least after the checkpoints and guidelines. Too much detail inline will distract readers from the flow of more abstract discussions. One reasons to create a second document is to save download and printing times. The Web Content Guidelines alone are about 20 pages. The Techniques document is almost 50. If you want a reader to digest the ideas, the Guidelines document should be kept as short as possible. - Ian -- Ian Jacobs (jacobs@w3.org) Tel/Fax: (212) 684-1814 http://www.w3.org/People/Jacobs
