The page http://www.w3.org/WAI/ER/existingtools.html now has the title "Existing Evaluation and Repair Tools" Here's comments from EO on that title, as recorded in Gregory's summary http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/w3c-wai-eo/2000JanMar/0053.html quote: >JB: another problem is the name of the document -- why >"Existing"; what would be a better title to make someone >realize what the resource is -- that it is a list of "Tools >for Evaluation and Repair of Web Pages"? > >SS: I also have a naming issue -- what a lot of these tools >do is simply testing for accessibility -- a much more simple >process than evaluation and repair! > >JB: could it be confused with usability testing? validation >would be more specific > >SS: then perhaps a definition is needed > >HB: current title is not only misleading, it is vague -- >Existing Evaluation and Repair Tools -- tools for what? end of quote Do folks have a suggestion for a new name? Judy's suggestion was "Tools for Evaluation and Repair of Web Pages"? Here's another suggestion "Tools for testing and improving the accessibility of web pages" Len ------- Leonard R.
