Re: Website with known set of issues

I think in this case we might suppose it is more like how OS development
used to work, that is to say you did not start developing for where the
hardware was at the time you started but where it would be when you
shipped.

With WCAG versions we can sort of see how widespread things can be expected
to reasonably be based on legal standards, so we might assume reasonably
widespread compliance with WCAG 2.0 in 2025-2026, might as well start
pushing now - just my feeling.
