Here are the answers submitted to 'EOWG Call for Review: Why Standards Harmonization is Essential to Web Accessibility, 2006 March' (Education and Outreach Working Group) for Jack Welsh. --------------------------------- Why Standards Harmonization is Essential to Web Accessibility ---- * ( ) I accept this version of the document as is * (x) I accept this version of the document, and suggest changes below * ( ) I accept this version of the document only with the changes below * ( ) I do not accept this version of the document because of the comments below * ( ) I abstain (not vote) --------------------------------- Comments ---- Comments on the document, formatted as described above. Comments (or a URI pointing to your comments): Location: Current situation Current wording: Omitting or adding accessibility provisions likewise changes what is required to meet a given level of conformance. This may similarly make it more difficult for developers of authoring tools and evaluation tools to support theresulting reduced or expanded conformance levels. Proposed revision: . . to support the resulting reduced or expanded conformance levels. Rationale: space missing between 'the resulting' Location: Fragmentation Driver/Reason for Harmonization table Current wording: Because Web technologies are constantly evolving, ongoing development and maintenance of local guidelines and techniques into the future may be prohibitively resource-intensive. Proposed revision: Because Web technologies are constantly evolving, ongoing development and maintenance of local guidelines and techniques into the future often are prohibitively resource-intensive. Rationale: By changing the second sentence from 'may be' to 'often are', I think we may be more compelling in the case we make and more accurate. Location: Fragmentation Driver/Reason for Harmonization table Current wording: These tools and resources develop more rapidly when there is a unified marketaround a consistent international set of Web accessibility standards. Proposed wording: These tools and resources develop more rapidly when there is a unified market around a consistent international set of Web accessibility standards. Rationale: space missing between 'market around' Location: Action Steps Current wording: has a list of six steps. Proposed revision: make bullets instead of numbered steps. Rationale: Steps suggest a sequential order rather than bullets which suggest a list. Location: Action Steps General comment: Not for this version, but at some point in the future, do we want to add a bullet that deals more directly with legal requirements?
