Resolution status:

Definitions of GENEAL FLASH THRESHOLD and RED FLASH THRESHOLD each have three criteria, the first of which is a combined area of flashes occurring concurrently and occupying more than one quarter of any 341 x 256 pixel rectangle anywhere on the displayed screen area when the content is viewed at 1024 x 768. Isn't that just another way of saying one quarter of any rectangle that's 1/3 of the screen high and 1/3 of the screen wide? Wouldn't the latter be sound less confusing and easier to test on non-1024x768 screens?

Proposed Change:

In both GENERAL FLASH THRESHOLD and RED FLASH THRESHOLD, change list item 1 to read "the combined area of flashes occurring concurrently (but not necessarily contiguously) occupies more than one quarter of any rectangular region that is one third of the screen high and one third of the screen wide".
