RESOLUTION: accepted editorial changes
15:42:35 [Joshue108]
Need to change "Understanding SC 3.3.2" as it does not accurately reflect what the SC says.(related to #164)
15:43:28 [kirkwood]
Andrew suggested to remove 3rd paragraph, new example rqts. Greg, to speak to comments

Greg: changing FC is not on table, not something to deal with right now. ‘When content requires user input.’ nothing in FC would mean?
15:47:58 [kirkwood]
AWK: i wouldn t rquire user input as just clicking on a link
15:48:24 [Joshue108]
q?
15:50:08 [kirkwood]
Greg: typing and that distintion making a point about reality of selecting an itme in a list is just as much aentering data as typing into a tect bos. From my perspective user input is very borad. My reading and UAG working group doesn’t match intent of WCAG working group.
