Re: DPUB Set of Web Pages

Hi Mike

>was developed the consensus opinion was that applying 2.4.1, 2.4.5, 3.2.3
and 3.2.4 to documents using the “set of documents” definition did not
capture the key accessibility needs.

Can you explain this further? I was an active member of the WCAG2ICT TF
with you on all of those calls for a year.

Cheers,
David MacDonald
