> Hi WCAG WG,
> 
> I learned that after James Nurthen had devised a technique that shows
> failure of content to scale under page zoom, the discussion has now
> concluded that F69 should be simply dropped.
> 
>  From an evaluation standpoint, the failures are of critical
> importance since they do not come with the usual disclaimer that
> "failure to conform does not mean that the SC is not met"  - a
> statement that we find under nearly (?) all tests in techniques,
> making them difficult to use in a conclusive evaluation procedure.
> 
> So I propose to think twice before deleting failures that provide at
> least *some* measure of assessing conformance to success criteria. I
> can find no argument why the proposed new example for F69
> http://jnurthen.users.sonic.net/resize.html
> 
> ..is unsuitable to demonstrate a failure of supporting page zoom.  It
> 'works' in several browsers that I tried it in.
