RE: proposal for 4.2.1

Hmmmm

 

That is the number one complaint  - and we always get grief for this SC.  So
I thought maybe it should be in the SC itself.

Can we address this issue in the definition of multiple versions of a Web
unit? The definition says that all versions have the same content and
functionality, which should imply that they are equally up to date. But we
may want to add wording to the definition to make this explicit.

So maybe
 

When [multiple versions of a Web unit] are available, at least one version
conforms at Level A and is most recent update. Any version that does not
conform at Level A provides a mechanism to obtain an up to date version that
does, and that mechanism meets all Level 1 success criteria.

Based on today's discussion and Greg's stab, here is another proposal for
wording SC 4.2.1:


When [multiple versions of a Web unit] are available, at least one version
conforms at Level A. Any version that does not conform at Level A  provides
a mechanism to obtain a version that does, and that mechanism meets all
Level 1 success criteria.

Glossary entry:

multiple versions of a Web unit:

Web units in the same natural language that provide all of the same
information and functionality  <http://www.w3.org/WAI/GL/WCAG20/>
<http://www.w3.org/WAI/GL/WCAG20/> 


Is this getting any closer?
