I think Option 4 makes the most sense to me. Option 2 gets a little lengthy and harder for me to follow. I like the fact that 4 has the conformance level built in so it can't be taken out of context.

The editors have come up with 4 proposals for discussion. Please choose the method you prefer or suggest an alternative. Option #1: Number success criteria sequentially (no conformance information): You will have successfully met Checkpoint 1.1 at the Minimum Level if: 1.1.1 Non-text content that can be expressed in words has a text-equivalent explicitly associated with it. 1.1.2 Non-text content that can not be expressed in words has a descriptive label provided as its text-equivalent. + The text equivalent should fulfill the same function as the author intended for the non-text content (i.e. it presents all of the intended information and/or achieves the same function of the non-text content). You will have successfully met Checkpoint 1.1 at Level 2 if: 1.1.3 The text-equivalent has been reviewed and is believed to fulfill the same function as the author intended for the non-text content (i.e. it presents all of the intended information and/or achieves the same function of the non-text content) 1.1.4 A conformance claim associated with the content asserts conformance to this checkpoint at level 2. ====== Option #2 structure the numbering to reflect the conformance level of each checkpoint. You will have successfully met Checkpoint 1.1 at the Minimum Level if: 1.1.1.1 Non-text content that can be expressed in words has a text-equivalent explicitly associated with it. 1.1.1.2 Non-text content that can not be expressed in words has a descriptive label provided as its text-equivalent. + The text equivalent should fulfill the same function as the author intended for the non-text content (i.e. it presents all of the intended information and/or achieves the same function of the non-text content). You will have successfully met Checkpoint 1.1 at Level 2 if: 1.1.2.1 The text-equivalent has been reviewed and is believed to fulfill the same function as the author intended for the non-text content. (i.e. it presents all of the intended information and/or achieves the same function of the non-text content) 1.1.2.2 A conformance claim associated with the content asserts conformance to this checkpoint at level 2. ========== Option #3 include conformance level in brackets after each sequential numbering You will have successfully met Checkpoint 1.1 at the Minimum Level if: 1.1.1 [Minimum] Non-text content that can be expressed in words has a text-equivalent explicitly associated with it. 1.1.2 [Minimum] Non-text content that can not be expressed in words has a descriptive label provided as its text-equivalent. + The text equivalent should fulfill the same function as the author intended for the non-text content (i.e. it presents all of the intended information and/or achieves the same function of the non-text content). You will have successfully met Checkpoint 1.1 at Level 2 if: 1.1.3 [Level 2] the text-equivalent has been reviewed and is believed to fulfill the same function as the author intended for the non-text content (i.e. it presents all of the intended information and/or achieves the same function of the non-text content) 1.1.4 [Level 2] a conformance claim associated with the content asserts conformance to this checkpoint at level 2. ========== Option #4 Identify criteria by letter (e.g., a-c, instead of 1-3) and include conformance level You will have successfully met Checkpoint 1.1 at the Minimum Level if: 1.1-1a Non-text content that can be expressed in words has a text-equivalent explicitly associated with it. 1.1-1b Non-text content that can not be expressed in words has a descriptive label provided as its text-equivalent. + The text equivalent should fulfill the same function as the author intended for the non-text content (i.e. it presents all of the intended information and/or achieves the same function of the non-text content). You will have successfully met Checkpoint 1.1 at Level 2 if: 1.1-2a The text-equivalent has been reviewed and is believed to fulfill the same function as the author intended for the on-text content (i.e. it presents all of the intended information and/or achieves the same function of the non-text content) 1.1-2b A conformance claim associated with the content asserts conformance to this checkpoint at level 2. -- wendy a chisholm world wide web consortium web accessibility initiative http://www.w3.org/WAI/ /--
