Re: WCAG 2.0 and scripting

In a corporate environment, use of a specific browser may be mandated
(and possibly with scripting blocked).

Users may also not know HOW to upgrade their browsers.

I think that we tend to get sidetracked regarding the needs of AT users,
forgetting that non-AT users may be using software over which they have
no real control.  AT users are a specific user group - accessibility is
about UNIVERSAL access, not accessibility by specific groups.

Whatever the drafts of WCAG2.0 may say, I will be sticking to my stance:
"if it does not work in Lynx, it's broken".
