This is an attempt to collect information about
Why do this?
To better understand who will be using our materials and how the materials will be used so that we create an informed design.
This is an exploration piece and does not reflect consensus by any W3C working group. It is intended to outline issues for discussion within the WCAG WG as we design the WCAG 2.0 suite of materials. It is not complete and it may not be accurate. It may become obsolete at any time.
This is a matrix of the people who might use WCAG 2.0-related documents and how integral each document is to the role that the person plays in the development process. The table is not yet complete. If you are unable to access the table, the data is summarized by role in the Scenarios section of this document.
