ATAG 2.0 Glossary: "authoring tool"

(Given the importance of this definition, I thought I should give it a 
separate thread.)

Original Proposal:

"USE BY OTHER PEOPLE" Modification to "authoring tool":

------
Current Proposed wording:

ATAG 2.0 defines an "authoring tool" as any software, or *collection of
software components*, that *authors* use to create or modify *Web
content* for USE BY OTHER PEOPLE.

Is this ok? Could it be tightened up somehow to exempt content that is 
being sent directly to a person who's accessibility requirements are 
known? Any other issues?


Cheers,
Jan
