In effect this sounds like doing a draft of our techniques document that is designed for WCAG 2 instead of WCAG 1. THis is a fairly major amount of work, and I would like to have the checkpoint mapping (from WCAG 1 to WCAG 2) and some techniques stuff available before we undertake to do this.

(in any case, it is >outstanding). Gregg requested that the AU WG write up how easy it is to implement WCAG checkpoints in authoring tools. It seems we agreed at the meeting that a good way to provide this feedback was for AU WG to go through each checkpoint in WCAG 2.0 and give some indication of how easy or hard the checkpoint is to implement. Thinking about it now, ER could also give useful feedback. Reading through AERT is already an annotated WCAG 1.0. Notice how many techniques say, "ask the author to...." that's an indication that we could not figure out an automatic way to check or repair something. There is not much more clarification in the raw minutes (which I am still cleaning up). Gregg, do you have any more to add to this? How do you anticipate the WCAG WG will use this information? This was part of the discussion on priorities. Do you expect that this will affect priorities?
