Please find below some additional minor comments on the Business Case for your consideration: ## Overview - validation error (simple ID name mismatch) - s/The Web is increasingly an essential resource many aspects of life/The Web is increasingly an essential resource in many aspects of life (typo - forgot "in") - consider a different word for "recoup" (not very common word) - s/so too do their business cases/so do their business cases ## Social Factors - s/including older people with age-related impairments/including people with age-related functional limitations ("impairment" unnecessary here) - s/To estimate how many people are affected by Web accessibility is difficult/It is difficult to estimate how many people are affected by Web accessibility (I personally think it is easier to read this way) - s/Overlap with Design for Older Users/Overlap with Older Users Needs - consider "vision/hearing/physical/cognitive decline" rather than the term "impairment" in the bullets of "Overlap with Design for Older Users" (reduce use of the term (label) "impairment" where possible) - s/The accessibility provisions that make the Web accessible provide many benefits for people experiencing impairments due to the ageing process/The accessibility provisions that make the Web accessible provide many benefits for people experiencing impairments due to the ageing process, even though they may not be regarded as having a disability (we first say that "people with disabilities includes older people with functional decline", then we say that "accessibility also benefits people without disabilities including older people" -- trying to qualify it here, and make the relationships very clear) - s/Older people with age-related visual deterioration benefit from/Older people with visual decline benefit from - s/Older people with diminished fine motor control benefit from/Older people with reduced fine motor control benefit from - s/Older people with hearing loss benefit from/Older people with hearing decline benefit from - consider adding something about cognitive disabilities in sub-section "Access for Older People", even if you just deffer to the "Access for People with Low Literacy and People Not Fluent in the Language" which has the relevant Success Criteria and Checkpoint mappings ## Financial Factors - validation error (simple ID name mismatch) - s/Testing design ideas and early prototypes with users with disabilities and older users, and including assistive technologies/Testing design ideas and early prototypes with users with disabilities and older users, and with assistive technologies Regards, Shadi -- Shadi Abou-Zahra - http://www.w3.org/People/shadi/ | WAI International Program Office Activity Lead | W3C Evaluation & Repair Tools Working Group Chair |
