Will use this to gather any editorial changes needed that I found:

  • 1.2.1: the note should say "success criterion" instead of "success criteria".
  • 2.2.2: Note 2 - The second replacement should be "in the non-web document or software" instead of "non-web documents and software" and then modify the statement that talks about the word replacements to match.
  • 2.3.1: Note 1 - Similar to 2.2.2 where the replacement should be "in the non-web document or software" to make the sentence read better. Also, "the whole software" should be replaced by "the whole software application" to be clearer.
  • 2.5.7: SC verbiage. Should the word replacement be "user agent or other platform software" rather than "user agent or platform software"? I think our definition of platform software gives a user agent as an example.
  • 2.5.8 Target size (minimum) - Similar to 2.5.7 we have word replacement of "user agent or platform software". Should it instead be "User agent or other platform software"?
  • 3.1.1 Language of page - Note 1 should replace "comply with" and "meet" to "satisfy" to be consistent with verbiage used elsewhere.
  • 4.1.3 Status messages - Similar verbiage used "user agent or platform software" - maybe should be "user agent or other platform software".

Hi @maryjom is this the result of #580 or something different? If different, are we planning to bring this up in a meeting or update per editorial only? Thanks for clarifying.

@ChrisLoiselle This issue came about when I was doing a review of the EN 301 549 and I noticed these anomalies in our guidance where there are some inconsistencies in language.
