I agree with Dick's comments Charles McCN On Thu, 20 Apr 2000, Dick Brown wrote: [snip] 11.4 says, "In a dedicated section of the documentation, describe all features of the user agent that promote accessibility." The technique says, "Integrate information about accessibility features throughout the documentation. The dedicated section on accessibility should provide access to the documentation as a whole rather than standing alone as an independent section. For instance, in a hypertext-based help system, the section on accessibility should link to pertinent topics elsewhere in the documentation." I think the technique goes too far in specifying that a dedicated section for Help should actually be a series of links to sections elsewhere in Help. While that might be good, it also seems sufficient if the section stands alone, assuming that accessibility information is properly integrated throughout the rest of the documentation.
