Reply to: RE>WAI Guidelines Naming GF: I don't think "Users" is clear. Is a user someone reads and uses these guidelines? Someone who writes HTML? Or is it just anyone who uses-- that is, browses-- the Web? And speaking of browsing, I wonder if "Browsing" as a title is unclear. Perhaps "Browser Manufacturers?" geoff freed NCAM -------------------------------------- Date: 1/29/98 2:26 AM To: Geoff Freed From: Judy Brewer As outcome of my meeting with Sally Khudairi on guidelines naming, please consider this recommendation for full set: (For those new to this thread, we are trying to map out all the WAI Guidelines names in advance, as our first working draft gets close to going public) WAI Accessibility Guidelines: Browsers WAI Accessibility Guidelines: Authoring Tools WAI Accessibility Guidelines: Page Authoring WAI Accessibility Guidelines: Users [if we do that set] WAI Accessibility Guidelines: Master Reference Document The document spec codes then become: WAI-BROWSER WAI-AUTHTOOLS WAI-PAGEAUTH WAI-USERS WAI-MASTERREF And they all get a "W3C Working Draft" or "W3C Proposed Recommendation" or "W3C Recommendation" depending on their status. They are official W3C documents, so they get that visibility right off. The idea is that: -the W3C already will have enough "brand recognition"; -it _is_ important on these to identify with WAI; -they all need to have "accessibility" in the title; -HTML or even Hypertext are unnecessary if we can keep names basic, like page authoring, etc. -these names are straightforward enough to minimize guesswork & confusion (in theory, at least). Now you tell me what you think:) Your thoughts? - Judy ------------------------------------------------------- Judy Brewer jbrewer@w3.org 617-258-9741 Director, Web Accessibility Initiative International Program Office World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) MIT/LCS Room NE43-355 545 Technology Square, Cambridge MA 02139 USA http://www.w3.org/WAI ------------------ RFC822 Header Follows ------------------ Received: by wgbh.org with ADMIN;29 Jan 1998 02:17:38 -0500 Received: by www19.w3.org (8.8.5/8.6.12) id CAA22161; Thu, 29 Jan 1998 02:10:19 -0500 (EST) Resent-Date: Thu, 29 Jan 1998 02:10:19 -0500 (EST) Resent-Message-Id: <199801290710.CAA22161@www19.w3.org> Message-Id: <3.0.32.19980129015328.009b4b00@sand.w3.org> X-Sender: jbrewer@sand.w3.org X-Mailer: Windows Eudora Pro Version 3.0 (32) Date: Thu, 29 Jan 1998 02:10:30 -0500 To: w3c-wai-cg@w3.org, w3c-wai-gl@w3.org, ij@w3.org From: Judy Brewer <JBrewer@w3.org> Cc: khudairi@w3.org Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Subject: WAI Guidelines Naming Resent-From: w3c-wai-gl@w3.org X-Mailing-List: <w3c-wai-gl@w3.org> archive/latest/105 X-Loop: w3c-wai-gl@w3.org Sender: w3c-wai-gl-request@w3.org Resent-Sender: w3c-wai-gl-request@w3.org Precedence: list
