RE: Publish Techniques and Understanding documents for public review

Andrew, Josh,

 

Attempting to view any differences in the Understanding document, I navigated to http://www.w3.org/WAI/GL/2016/WD-UNDERSTANDING-WCAG20-20160105/complete-diff.html

 

Using the toggle switches provided in page, I do not see any changes or deletions, and only one addition “Partial conformance claims due to third party content” – should I be expecting to see any other changes in the Diff view? 

 

(Likewise for Techniques - http://www.w3.org/WAI/GL/2016/WD-WCAG20-TECHS-20160105/complete-diff.html - which indicates only 2 additions, 3 changes, and no deletions – is this correct?) 

 

Thanks in advance.

 

JF

Subject: CfC: Publish Techniques and Understanding documents for public review
Importance: High

 

CALL FOR CONSENSUS – ends Thursday January 7 at 3:30pm Boston time.

 

The group has collected responses to comments and issues over the past several months and intends to release the latest versions of the Understanding WCAG 2.0 and Techniques for WCAG 2.0 documents for public review.  During the review period we will collect comments and will have a chance to review and address them prior to releasing the documents as W3C Working Group Notes (and releasing the documents as Notes will also require a separate CfC).

 

Understanding: http://www.w3.org/WAI/GL/2016/WD-UNDERSTANDING-WCAG20-20160105/

Techniques: http://www.w3.org/WAI/GL/2016/WD-WCAG20-TECHS-20160105/

 

If you have concerns about releasing these documents for public comment that have not been discussed already and feel that those concerns result in you “not being able to live with” this decision, please let the group know before the CfC deadline.

 

Thanks,

AWK
