Silverlight techniques

Hi everyone,

There is ongoing work to clean up old issues on WCAG 2.x, most of which is editorial and we’ve been merging in.

A large change (in terms of number of files) is removing the Silverlight techniques:
https://github.com/w3c/wcag/pull/2449

We agreed a similar thing for the Flash techniques, which were removed in 2020 after Flash’s end-of-support date.

Silverlight’s end-of-support date was in October 2021, so the proposal is to do the same thing.

Note that the techniques would still be available from the 2.0 version: https://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG20-TECHS/silverlight.html

If you have any concerns, please reply here or on the PR. If none are forthcoming in the next couple of weeks, we’ll merge it in.

Kind regards,

-Alastair
