Hello, I have published the 18 December version of the ATAG Guidelines [1] and Techniques Document [2]. In addition to changes made by Charles (which I will let him document), I made the following changes: 1) Incorporated changes from 15 Dec atag teleconf http://www.w3.org/WAI/AU/telecon-15dec99 2) Incorporated editorial changes from Ian's propsals of 12 December http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/w3c-wai-au/1999OctDec/0295.html 3) Deleted the term "impairment" and replaced with "disability" (one occurrence). Based on 14 December CG decision to not use "impairment" http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Member/w3c-wai-cg/1999OctDec/0053.html 4) Deleted the term "alt-text" and replace with "text-equivalent" (notably in the section on A-prompt). 5) Changed "fulfill a checkpoint" to "satisfy a checkpoint" (for unity with other guidelines). 6) Added the following links: a) Techniques now back link to the Guidelines (via the checkpoint number) Linking is to the latest version of the guidelines. b) Samples (e.g., Amaya) now back link to the Techniques (via the checkpoint number) 7) I made some changes to the document processing machinery to align ATAG and UAAG (and ultimately WCAG). Readers should notice absolutely no different. But if you remark anything strange, please let the editors know. Thank you, - Ian [1] http://www.w3.org/WAI/AU/PR-WAI-AUTOOLS-19991218/ [2] http://www.w3.org/WAI/AU/WD-WAI-AUTOOLS-TECHS-19991218 -- Ian Jacobs (jacobs@w3.org) http://www.w3.org/People/Jacobs Tel/Fax: +1 212 684-1814 Cell: +1 917 450-8783
