Thanks for clarification, Gregg. This should be an action item for the editors-- to clarify the wording that specifies which techniques/combinations are sufficient.

It is the UPPER list that is the 'sufficient' list. The upper list then refers to the lower lists of technology specific techniques. Often the lower are part of an AND statement. In that case the lower are not sufficient in themselves. They must be used in conjunction with the ANDed item above.

In the How to meet document when the phrase, "The following combinations of techniques are deemed to be sufficient by the WCAG Working Group to meet success criterion N.N.N" is followed by a list of general and also a list of technology specific techniques, I assume that only one of the techniques from either list is necessary for last call. Is this correct? Several success criteria have a general techniques that state, "Using technology-specific standard techniques for," followed by some general description of the technology specific techniques listed in the How to Meet document. We should have some consistent wording for the first part of each technique. And, is this really a general technique that needs a formal technique document and tests? thanks, Becky Gibson Web Accessibility Architect IBM Emerging Internet Technologies 5 Technology Park Drive Westford, MA 01886 Voice: 978 399-6101; t/l 333-6101 Email: gibsonb@us.ibm.com
