Re: Removing 1.4.8

Hi All,

Katie, your post starts with one lower-case word ("public") - was that
intentional or was some content lost in transmission?

@Wayne Dick <wayneedick@gmail.com> if as you note 1.4.8 has been subsumed
by 1.4.10 Level AA, then why mess with 1.4.8? One of our "prime directives"
during WCAG 2.1 was to ensure it was backward compatible, and not every
organization is striving for 2.1 conformance, so I'd "leave sleeping dogs
lay" as it were.

My $0.05 Cdn.
