Re: WCAG meeting January 24, 2017

Alastair,

Thank you so much for your suggestion.

I selected that option simply because I wanted to emphasize my concern.

My concern is that the modification can create conflicting
requirements between 2.0 and 2.1. The point is that it'll be okay if
we can say conforming to WCAG 2.1 means conforming to WCAG 2.0 plus
additional, enhanced or extended requirements.

If we'll be able to make the statement you suggested, it'll address my
concern. Thanks!
