Re: wording for the introduction

I'm fine with the friendly amendment...

The research sentence parses a little awkward with two "continues", perhaps
this will fix it...

Although these guidelines cover many important issues, they cannot address
the needs of every individual and every type, degree, and combination of
disabilities.  Significant challenges remain in addressing cognitive,
language and learning disabilities while ensuring that success criteria are
consistently testable and implementable in all web pages across diverse
languages and cultures.  Research will continue in this area as
technologies mature in the marketplace.  We encourage authors to refer to
our supplemental guidance on improving the user experience for people with
learning and cognitive disabilities at: w3.org/XXX

Cheers,
David MacDonald
