Comment:

There is a broken link in the "Mobile Web Best Practices 1.0". In the code source, we can see now "[p]This relates to WCAG [a href=""]3.2[/a]" (obiously, we have to replace "][" with "><").

The anchor will be
[p]This relates to WCAG [a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/WAI-WEBCONTENT/#tech-identify-grammar"]3.2[/a]
