aloha! on the W3C systems team (systeam) blog, there is an announcement about the public availability (through a web-form interface) of the script that DIFF-marks W3C documents: http://www.w3.org/blog/systeam/2007/10/25/online_htmldiff_service after starting a dialog with dominique of the W3C systeam on the systeam's blog (located at the URI above), dom took the issue directly to the creator of the original script, shane mccaron, carbon-copying me -- whilst i was offline due to illness since the thirteenth, and, thus, did not have a chance to participate in the feedback loop, i did want to share with the wider WAI community what steps have been taken and to ask assistance in reviewing and commenting upon the changes which have been effected to the htmldiff script used by W3C staff to generate DIFF-marked versions of W3C working drafts... in fact, dom has already uploaded the new script to the online diff-marking service: http://www.w3.org/2007/10/htmldiff as dom suggested, i will be following up on the dispensing of advice, which is why i am seeking the advice and counsel of the wider WAI community -- what is it about DIFF-marked documents that hinders your comprehension? are you satisfied with the results? what can we do to further improve the DIFF-marking tool's output's accessibility? would anyone be interested/available to grok the perl script to ascertain where and how it could be improved? oh, and a very big thank you to shane for effecting the changes to his script so quickly, gregory. -- "He who lives on Hope, dies farting." -- Benjamin Franklin, Poor Richard's Almanack -- Gregory J.
