Hi All As you know, WCAG-EM draft is in a review stage and EOWG is revewing it at http://www.w3.org/WAI/EO/wiki/WCAG-EM_review. This conformance evaluation methodology will be a very useful and valuable document to improve the quality of web accessibility. I propose that it may help the review process if we establish some different use cases to act as test cases. I think WCAG-EM should resonate with the experiences of web developers and commisioners in a substantial variety of national and international contexts. We can use the use cases to represent these differences in a systematic way. Shawn started a wiki of use cases at http://www.w3.org/WAI/EO/wiki/Eval_Analysis covering preliminary and conformance evaluation. In the third task in the table, row head "Thorough, authoratative evaluation of WCAG conformance." I have added a few more use cases so as to increase the scope to include large organisations using web agencies and CMS doing a complete redesign through to a developer or author adding a new section or some content to their website. Plus also two use cases for maintenance. Please can you read and add to the use cases, or comment on them so that we can discuss this on Friday eg Is this a useful strategy, which are or are not in scope and which are or are not addressed by WCAG-EM? Working in the table can be tricky (I spent some time fixing it after I broke it!). So you might prefer to add comments to the Discussion page, or to email me and I'll put the comments together for the EOWG meeting.
