RE: WCAG 2.2 easy misc issues

+1 to the updates.  What 2714 highlights with 3.3.7 a little more clearly now is the types of CAPTCHA and tests that are and are not allowed with the exception.  Images of text CAPTCHAs where you transcribe are not allowed unless there is an alternative but image recognition CAPTCHA is allowed.  Is math considered non-text content? Entering a pass phrase is not allowed as it's text unless the there is some method to allow remembered pass phrases to be entered by the browser - because of autocomplete values this likely will limit text-based things to passwords and perhaps not other text-based phrases.  There might be a few things that could be further clarified such as manipulation.  Manipulation is listed as a cognitive function test - e.g. moving the slider to the right and similar but it could be helpful to give additional examples of this situation and describe how these are not simply recognition of objects and thus are not allowed unless there is an alternative.

Hi everyone,

There are a few items from the survey that I think we can finalise asynchronously as they were very close.

Change First Note 3.2.6 Consistent Help to align better with SC text #2408
https://www.w3.org/2002/09/wbs/35422/wcag22-misc-normative/results#xq2

This was 14 in favour of merging the PR, 2 with adjustment (but no adjustment suggested), I'll merge.


Note in Accessible Authentication needs to be reworded #2714
https://www.w3.org/2002/09/wbs/35422/wcag22-misc-normative/results#xq3

15 in favour, 2 something else. Gundula and Oliver thought it changed the meaning, however, it now directly refers to the intended bullets in the SC.
I'll merge unless someone replies to object.


3.3.9 Redundant Entry out of order #2764
https://www.w3.org/2002/09/wbs/35422/wcag22-misc-normative/results#xq4

15 in favour, 2 something else. Gundula thought that readers might not understand the history and that we cannot change the numbering now. However, this is the last chance we have to re-order things without an errata.  I'll merge.


Normative wording inconsistencies for Accessible Authentication SCs #2715
https://www.w3.org/2002/09/wbs/35422/wcag22-misc-normative/results#xq6
15 in favour, 1 agree with adjustment (but no adjustment suggested).
I'll merge.

Any objections please reply soon. These SCs will come back via a (probably grouped) CFC as they are normative.

Kind regards,

-Alastair
