Thanks, Shadi. EOWG, I made the following tweaks based on Shadi's input. If you have any concerns, please let us know asap On 11/12/2014 5:16 PM, Shadi Abou-Zahra wrote: > Hi Shawn, > > Looks good, thanks for this write-up. > > A couple of minor comments: > > Comment #1: Regardless of any title changes, I think that the > document needs to clarify that the listing is non-exhaustive.

Changed the shortname of that comment from "section title" to "clarify not comprehensive" and tweaked to say consider changing the title, *and* making it clear in the first sentence.

Jan also had interesting points on the complications of this list and combining cognitive and neurological disabilities (<http://www.w3.org/2014/11/07-eo-minutes#item01>). Added: "[EOWG had some concerns with the list, yet also the thought that some readers might recognize some conditions in the list but would not think of them with just "cognitive and neurological disabilities".] Consider consulting the Cognitive Accessibility Task Force for suggestions for this paragraph (and encouraging them to keep it fairly succinct like the others)." > > Comment #5: Maybe change "more in-depth" to "broader"?
