The word "modified" suggests to me the possibility of changes that are not strictly extensions. It would be clearer to say that further requirements may be added to a WCAG 2.0 success criterion. This would clarify that only additional requirements are intended to be created by extensions. Jason, can you explain more about why modified doesn’t say “extension” to you? A simple example of a modification (I’m making this one up, so don’t read anything into it) could be if we decided to make a change so that the color contrast ration was 5:1 instead of 4.5:1. This might be all that is modified in the success criteria, but it would be an extension of the original SC. Does that help? AWK
