Hi all,

The question has come up 'Do we need to follow the same form as WCAG 
with our extensions success criteria'? A possible method would be to map 
suggested COGA (and other groups) current new SCs (as techniques) to 
existing WCAG success criteria. And if we find that some don’t easily 
map to an existing SC, then that could represent a gap – and therefore 
the need for a new SC.

Therefore one path which could help us to troubleshoot this whole thing 
would be to see all current or proposed SCs – as techniques, then work 
backwards from there.

Another way, is to try to flip any suggested SC into a testable 
statement. If that can't be done, then its likely a technique that can 
fit an existing SC.

Comments, brickbats welcome.

Josh
