Mobile Accessibility: How WCAG 2.0 and Other W3C/WAI Guidelines Apply to Mobile

Note: this is an internal rough proposal to the mobile task force, not for re-use outside of the Mobile TF

David MacDonald's proposed discussion and reorganization of Mobile Accessibility: How WCAG 2.0 and Other W3C/WAI Guidelines Apply to Mobile. The original wording is kept in tact wherever possible, with small adjustments for grammar on proposed new Success Criteria. The new SCs are only slightly tweaked and will need more work. The purpose of this is reorganization is to:

  1. Tease out the advice that can be turned into WCAG Guidelines, Success Criteria, and Techniques
  2. Document which advice cannot become Success Criteria or suffient techniques in the current wording
  3. Begin discussion about whether we can adapt this non SC advisory recommendations into Success Criteria format, or leave them as advisory (or best practices), or Sufficient Techniques for an existing Success Criteria. We understanding that almost no one follows advisory or best practice advice.
  4. Recommend moving all prose that is not a Success Criteria, Guideline or Technique to the Understanding Doc for these new Success Criteria, Guidelines, etc.
  5. Turn the information into a form digestible as an Normative Extension Spec. for WCAG 2
