I like it too Justin. It is short and (putting myself in the designers shoes) it tells me exactly what to do with it. This approach as an intro brings the focus of the document back to it being a tool to help me rather than just more stuff that I have to (and probably wont) read.

What if we made the intro a personal note from the WCAG WG to developers? Something like... Dear Developers, We spent a lot of time making sure that WCAG 2.0 says what it needs to say but we realize that a lot of you want to get right down the meat of how to make you're Web site accessible. We made this tool just for you. All you have to do is: * enter the Web technologies you use, * enter the level of conformance you desire, * and it will list the approrpiate success criteria and techniques. We hope this makes your life a little bit easier. Best Wishes, The WCAG WG. My words are more a suggestion of style and not exactly what it should say. Maybe this is too personal BUT it'd put a smile on my face if i saw it. ****************** Justin Thorp US Library of Congress Web Services - Office of Strategic Initiatives e - juth@loc.gov p - 202/707-9541 >>> Shawn Henry <shawn@w3.org> 5/17/2007 8:52 PM >>> 1.
