Part of Item:
Comment Type: GE
Comment (including rationale for proposed change):

Rationale: In the term programmatically determined, the concept of total determinism is not clear enough. There needs to be a clear difference between programmatically determined (recognized by a deterministic algorithm) and non-deterministically accessed by an AI heuristic --as in optical character recognition.

Proposed Change:

Change: In Introduction: Important New Terms Used in WCAG 2.0
Add to the description of programmatically determined…\"This means that the author is responsible for ensuring that the content is delivered in such a way that software can access it [with no chance of error]\". You could also say positively… [with perfect accuracy].
