RE: New R1

Small emendation proposed below:
John Slatin

At teleconf call today we reached consensus on collapsing R1,2, and 3 into a
new R1 as listed below. 

 

It is posted to the List for comment before adoption next week.

 

 

R1: WCAG 2.0 deliverables should be more understandable and usable by a
wider audience than was anticipated for WCAG 1.0, including policy makers.
While the WCAG WG does not set policy, harmonization of accessibility
requirements helps drive demand for supporting implementations in Web
applications; therefore it should be easy for policy makers and individuals
responsible for implementing policy  to understand, cite and/or adopt WCAG
2.0 and related deliverables.

Delete the "or" in "... and/or adopt" (I did not mean to say that when I
proposed this language yesterday: the "or" would significantly weaken the
statement-- we want it to be easy for these folks to adopt WCAG 2.0, too!
