if we named it "user interface guidelines" where would be put the info about how the browsers or user agents should deal with html etc. there are more than interface issues that we want browser mfgrs to talk address. g -----Original Message----- From: Jason White [SMTP:jasonw@ariel.ucs.unimelb.EDU.AU] Subject: Re: WAI Guidelines Naming At the risk of further complicating the nomenclature debate, I would like to suggest "user interface guidelines" instead of either "user agent" or "client software" guidelines. This title at least emphasises the nature of the subject matter. Specific issues relevant to the user interface of HTML editing software and similar products would be treated in the authoring tool guidelines, however. The user interface guidelines themselves would still provide basic parameters, but concentrate more on client software, including both user agents and assistive technologies. Perhaps a compromised title such as "WAI client software user interface guidelines" would be best.
