Techniques for 7.1

Having reviewed briefly the references in the techniques for 7.1 the only
documents which clearly prioritise guidelines according to their impact on
people with disabilities are the W3C gidelines - Web Content and User Agent
Accessiblity Guidelines respectively.

The guidelines at
http://www.microsoft.com/enable/download/dev/win_guidelines/winapp23.txt have
a priority scheme which is different from that used by the W3C guidelines.

The EITAAC guidelines that I found in the final report do not prioritise
requirements, although they do provide general requirements and requirements
for specific technologies.

I therefore propose to refer to the two W3C documents as informative aids in
determining the priority of requirements in other, unprioritsed checkl;ists
nad guidelines (although I will try to say it in english in the document).
