> put a comma after   "adaptable" so it reads 
>      * Make information *adaptable,* and *available* to assistive 
> technologies.

EOWG agreed that the distinction is important; however, they were not comfortable with the incorrect grammar of "Make information adaptable, and available to assistive technologies."

EOWG suggests either:
a. Make content adaptable; and make it available to assistive technologies. (with a semicolon)
b. Make content adaptable. Make it available to assistive technologies. (two sentences)

There were preferences for both, and everyone on the call would be "quite happy" with either of the above options.
Additional thoughts and preferences are welcome -- after you've looked at it in context at <http://www.w3.org/WAI/WCAG20/glance/>

EOWG also approved a shorter version where required, e.g., for the QuickTips card, of "Make content adaptable, & available to assistive technologies"

> don't bold the "and"s       (There are 4 of them)

While initially there was some support for this, once we looked at it (that is, looked at a draft with the "and"s unbold), all agreed that it was better with the "and"s bold. Everyone thought it flowed better and it was easier to read with the bold. "unbolding makes it harder to parse."
