Yo Charles, Thanks for your helpful suggestions and examples. > you're using the 0.95 namespace - you should be > using the nmg-strawman namespace > Now fixed. Thanks for letting me know. > Note that it defines the common bits once (subject, assertor) > Ah, makes it much clearer. I'll use that in the future. > ...uses a made-up namespace interpretation of WCAG. > This looks a bit strange to me. Should this sort of information be in the Testcase? > For the Testcase I have added a dc:title... > OK. Makes the Testcase clearer. > <earl:date>2003-10-28T20:59:01-01:00</earl:date> > Wendy suggested I use the <dc:date> and put it in the Assertion, not WebContent. Or, does your date refer to the WebContent itself?
