Last two ATAG2 draft comment responses

(See Attached)

MS9a: B.1.2 How does this apply to something like a copy and paste operation from a rich text editor to a plain text editor where structural info will be lost? Who is supposed to tell the author that the structure is gone? Please explain how the SC applies to copy-and-paste or cut-and-paste operations?

AUWG: A note has been added to the definition of Content Transformation to make it clear that copy and paste operations are not in scope: "Note: Clipboard operations, in which content is copied to or pasted from the platform clipboard, are not considered content transformations". Also a new SC has been added to cover the copy-paste case: "B.1.2.2 Copy-Paste Inside Authoring Tool (WCAG): If the authoring tool supports copy-paste of structured content within the authoring tool, then any accessibility information (WCAG) in the copied content is preserved. (Level A to meet WCAG 2.0 Level A success criteria; Level AA to meet WCAG 2.0 Level A and AA success criteria; Level AAA to meet all WCAG 2.0 success criteria)".


WSO1: One area of concern, however, is the inconsistent use of the terms "accessible" and "accessibility." (SEE DETAILS HERE http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-atag2-comments/2011Sep/0000.html)

AUWG: We have made numerous edits to the document to make clear that our use of the terms accessible content, accessible templates, etc. rest on a reference to WCAG 2.0. These changes are outline here:
