Re: CFC - Errata, "Changes of context" definition

Errata are for WCAG 2.0 and 2.1 for anything that appears in both and are just for 2.1 for new content added in 2.1.

Thanks,

Hi Wilco,

This would be added to the errata page of WCAG 2.1 and appear in the guidelines page of WCAG 2.2. (I.e. errata don’t trigger a re-publication of previous recommendations.)

New errata haven’t been added to older recommendations, MichaelC might correct me, but that appears to be a general policy for our recs.

Kind regards,

-Alastair

Hey Alastair,
Can you confirm that this would be an errata to both WCAG 2.0 and WCAG 2.1?
