In the teleconference today we noted that of all the suggestions to rewrite 3.3 none of them had the word "POSSIBLE" in them. We are therefore proposing that the words "POSSIBLE AND" be removed from 3.3 so that it reads Checkpoint 3.3: Write as clearly and simply as is appropriate for the site's content. If you have an objection to the removal of "possible and" from the checkpoint please respond to the list before Monday. ( You can also comment on other aspects of 3.3 but this is the only one we are considering before this TR release. ) NOTES: We decided to not change content to purpose at this time for two reasons 1) it was deemed to be a change in the meaning of the checkpoint and we are too close to release. 2) there were concerns that purpose was quite different and may not be what we want to say. A site may have multiple purposes for example. We decided not to introduce the word 'language' for two reasons 1) too close to release to introduce a word that might change the meaning 2) language is only one aspect of writing that can effect the simplicity of the content. Thanks much everyone Gregg
