Re: CfC: Silver process

Lisa,

Diversity of stakeholders, use cases and personas is a VERY important 
goal of Silver, and one that the group is very committed to.  The WCAG 
WG will be approving the stakeholder map, the use cases and personas 
before they are complete, and the WCAG WG will be receiving regular 
reports from the group so there should be sufficient controls to insure 
diversity.

I will say that personally, increasing the diversity of Silver is very 
important to me, and the major reason that I agreed to the research 
phase of the project.
