It looks like our discussion on the list was reaching consensus. The GL 4.2 
subgroup did some minor wordsmithing, and proposes the following:


<propose>
Baseline: Set of technologies assumed to be supported by, and enabled
in, user agents in order for Web content to conform to these guidelines.

NOTE 1: Some examples of entities that may set baselines that an author may
have to follow include the author, a company, a customer and government
entities.

NOTE 2: In the techniques document we plan to discuss techniques for
conforming to WCAG 2.0 based on three different baselines (i.e. assumptions
of technologies supported and active in user agents).
