I suggest reviewing all checkpoints, splitting some into more detailed checkpoints, and reorganizing them into three groups. I think that we can find homes for the technology checkpoints. As for leaving access and comprehension together, those are the two areas I am MOST interested in seeing separated, because I think that this intersection is the source of almost all the friction and controversy in this group. Also, I'd like to see a lot more focus on comprehension. And I have some questions, such as, How do we measure success? I would at least like to take a stab at it. Is anyone else willing to help come up with a quick rearrangement of the checkpoints to see what something like this might look like? If it just doesn't work, well, thems the breaks. But I'd really like to give it a try just to see...
