Comment Type: technical
Comment (Including rationale for any proposed change):
Success Criterion 2.4.4 should be at level 1 and is currently at level 2. Good link text is very important for people with visual impairments as well as people with cognitive impairments. Poor link text was identified as a key problem in the DRC report (http://www.drc-gb.org/PDF/2.pdf). Good link text is at least as important as skip-navigation links which is at level 1.

Proposed Change:
Move SC 2.4.4 to level 1.
