Re: CFC - Moving Silver Requirements to note

I apologize for doing this, and I know the silver taskforce is trying
hard,  but I can not agree with the silver requirements

My concern is that the requirements (in section 4) do not include, or even
imply, that all user needs will be addressed to the best of our ability.

 It does not include that following these requirements will enabled content
to be as accessible as possible for all people with disabilities. The
requirement section does not address the imbalance of user needs in the
current guidelines, across the different disability groups.  (Note these
are implied in the scope but not in the requirements. It must be in the
actual requirements)

Again the focus of the requirements is on measurability,   adoption into
law,etc. But if addressing the user needs are not a requirement, what is
the point?

Keep well, and thanks again for the huge effort in creating this work
