The current model for categorization of techniques, requires two levels. 1. Priority Level (need from the users perspective) [Priority 1] This technique must be implemented otherwise one or more groups of users with disabilities will find it impossible to access information. Implementing this technique is a basic requirement for some individuals to be able to use the Web. [Priority 2] This technique should be implemented, otherwise one or more groups of users will find it difficult to access information. Implementing this technique will significantly improve access to the Web for some individuals. [Priority 3] This technique may be implemented, to make it easier for one or more groups of users to access information. Implementing this technique will improve access to the Web for some individuals. 2. Implementation Recommendation ( [Direct] This technique must be implemented directly by the user agent and provide comaptibility for third party assistive technology [Direct or Compatible] This technique can be implemented directly or through compatibility with assistive technology when assistive technology is commonly available to provide access to the user agent. If assistive technology is not commonly available this feature should be directly implmented. How does this model work for people?
