RE: Proposed reply to issue #356 (Gregg's comment on SC 2.5.1 Pointer Gestures)

Detlev,

'At least one mode' is not the same as an alternate version in my mind. Just my 2 cents.

I have drafted and posted a reply to Gregg's comments on SC 2.5.1 Pointer Gestures 

https://github.com/w3c/wcag21/issues/356

In my view, the change of language Gregg suggests is not necessary since
- UA and AT gestures are by definition outside the scope since these are web content author requirements
- the provision 'there is at least one mode' seems redundant since WCAG conformance requirements generally allow to meet a SC via a conforming alternate version.
