[wbs] response to 'EOWG Call for Review: WCAG 2.0 Presentation 1'

The following answers have been successfully submitted to 'EOWG Call for
Review: WCAG 2.0 Presentation 1' (Education and Outreach Working Group)
for Sylvie Duchateau.



---------------------------------
Version
----
Which version are these comments for? The version date is on Slide 2.



 * (x) 27 August 2007





---------------------------------
Community or Public
----
First, a relatively easy question:The presentation talks about
"Community|Public review, comments, and feedback..." and "Providing
adequate time for community|public review," on Slide 8, Slide 9 Notes, and
Slide 11 Notes. Do you prefer "community" or "public" for these? Use the
comment field for any explanations.



 * (x) Prefer community
 * ( ) Prefer public
 * ( ) No preference

Comments (or a URI pointing to your comments): 
Public is the contrary of private, and it remains a general word. 
Community refers to a group of people working on the same field, the Web
community. So this word may be less broad than public which is a very
general term. The web community is the group that works on the Web. The
public can be the Web community but also people who do not know anything
about the Web, like web site clients or readers. 
At last, my preference for community is a question of feeling, it sounds
better. 




---------------------------------
Example of WCAG 2.0 providing more design flexibility
----
Slide 28 has the following examples of how WCAG 2.0 provides more
flexibility for design:

 * WCAG 1.0 Checkpoint 7.1: Until user agents allow users to control
flickering, avoid causing the screen to flicker. [Priority 1]WCAG 2.0
allows more movement within defined parameters
 * WCAG 1.0 Checkpoint 13.6: Group related links, identify the group (for
user agents), and, until user agents do so, provide a way to bypass the
group. [Priority 3]WCAG 2.0 allows more flexibility in meeting the
corresponding success criteria: Bypass Blocks: A mechanism is available to
bypass blocks of content that are repeated on multiple Web pages


Are these good examples? Are they clear and strong? Please rate each from
the drop-down list.
What would be another clear, strong example? Please put it in the Comments
field.


 * Checkpoint 7.1 -- WCAG 2.0 allows more movement: [ No opinion ] 
 * Checkpoint 13.6 -- WCAG 2.0 lists more techniques : [ No opinion ]

Example of WCAG 1.0 user agent clause that's no longer an issue
----
For Slide 35 we want to give an example or two of things that were
required in WCAG 1.0 that are no longer issues due to developments in
technologies. Ideas:

 * 1.5 Until user agents render text equivalents for client-side image map
links, provide redundant text links for each active region of a client-side
image map.
 * 
10.4 Until user agents handle empty controls correctly, include default,
place-holding characters in edit boxes and text areas.
 * 
10.5 Until user agents (including assistive technologies) render adjacent
links distinctly, include non-link, printable characters (surrounded by
spaces) between adjacent links.



Are these good examples? Are they clear and strong? Please rate each from
the drop-down list.
What would be another clear, strong example? Please put it in the Comments
field.


 * 1.5 Until user agents render text equivalents for client-side image map
links...: [ 5 +++++ (highest) ] 
 * 10.4 Until user agents handle empty controls correctly...: [ 4 ++++ ] 
 * 10.5 Until user agents (including assistive technologies) render
adjacent links distinctly...: [ No opinion ]
