Email: ITI Comments on First Public Working Draft of W3C Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 3.0 (15 - flexible conformance) #457
Comments
Thank you for your comment. Project members are working on your comment. You may see discussion in the comment thread and we may ask for additional information as we work on it. We will mark the official response when we are finished and close the issue. |
Draft Response: Thank you for your ideas. The Silver Task Force agrees with you that we do not want to make the conformance too complicated. The group continues to vote down having multiple conformance models. While we work through the process of creating a conformance model and way of putting together a conformance claim, it will continue to start off more complicated than we want. As we work through arriving at a more solid conformance model and conformance claim process, we can then start refining and simplifying them. |

We are closing this issue but are adding a label input-for-refinement to ensure the group considers your point as we move forward. |
Approved response: Thank you for your ideas. The Silver Task Force agrees with you that we want to make the conformance more flexible and not too complicated. We are closing this issue but are adding a label input-for-refinement to ensure the group considers your point as we move forward. |

A flexible conformance approach might be a vehicle for addressing the more complicated issues involved in 3rd party content conformance, as well as flexibility in describing the main/primary functions of a web page or view vs. the secondary or tertiary ones. However, multiple conformance models would likely make conformance claims more complicated and confusing. There should be one model for conformance, based on rating and scoped by documenting the sampling, processes, and any other testing performed with an easy way to calculate the conformance level. If it is too complicated, it will be difficult for policy makers to understand what conformance levels can be reasonably expected for technologies to attain that can be included in regulations. More clarity in the specific proposals is needed to give a more detailed response to the question.
