Example refer to WCAG 2.1 instead of WCAG 2.2.

The term "gig" means something different if it occurs in a discussion of music concerts
than it does in article about computer hard drive space, but the appropriate definition
can be determined from context. By contrast, the word "text" is used in a very specific
way in WCAG 2.1, so a definition is supplied in the glossary.

@rscano can you please clarify what you wish addressed?

The current definition for up-event in both wcag 2.1 and 2.2 reads:

up-event
platform event that occurs when the trigger stimulus of a pointer is released
The up-event may have different names on different platforms, such as "touchend" or "mouseup".

I don't understand what your "gig" comment refers to.

I don't understand what your "gig" comment refers to.

If you follow the link, you see that there is an example... and inside example there is WCAG 2.1 instead of WCAG 2.2 (or, better, use WCAG 2 directly).

Oh, you are talking about the definition for "used in an unusual or restricted way", not for up-event.
Okay, now I understand, thanks.

It is unclear to me if the change needs to be made in the hmtl or in one of these source files, where the definition also occurs, so citing them as part of the change
