RE: What does WCAG mean by "a set of Web units"

Gregg's right. But the problem may be solvable: we already have an
example of a site that pre-dates publication of WCAG 2.0 as a
Recommendation-- pages created or last updated before [pubdate] conform
to WCAG 1.0 at [Priority]. Pages created or updated after [pubdate]
conform to WCAG 2.0, L-whatever.

Is this adaptable to the current situatoin?

That doesn't work I don't think. Problems if you have different levels
of conformance for different parts.
