Hi Gregg, Without looking at any SC in particular, the conformance statement shall read (under the K.I.S.S. principle): <old text> Conformance Notes A delivery unit conforms to WCAG 2.0 at a given conformance level only if all content provided by that delivery unit conforms at that level. Note: If multiple representations can be retrieved from a URI through content negotiation, then the conformance claim would be for the delivery unit that is returned when no negotiation is conducted (unless the server returns an error for that condition, in which case one of the negotiated forms must comply). </old text> <proposal> Conformance Notes Conformance claims are expressed in terms of delivery units [REF]. DUs are considered as a whole entity. The fact that a DU is conformant at a given level does not imply that all its components are individually conformant at that level. Note: If multiple representations can be retrieved from a URI through HTTP content negotiation [1], then the conformance claim must specify the necessary Request Headers to which the claim applies. </proposal> In regard to the difficulty of this effort, see my next email. regards, carlos [1] http://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616-sec12.html#sec12 Gregg Vanderheiden wrote: > How so? > > How do you fix the problem in the SC with a change to the conformance > statement? -- Dr Carlos A Velasco - http://access.fit.fraunhofer.de/ Fraunhofer-Institut für Angewandte Informationstechnik FIT [Fraunhofer Institute for Applied Information Technology (FIT)] Barrierefreie Informations- und Kommunikationstechnologie für Alle Schloss Birlinghoven, D53757 Sankt Augustin (Germany) Tel: +49-2241-142609 Fax: +49-2241-1442609
