[ID] 9a [Commenter] Richard Warren and Kerstin Probiesch (in questionnaire) [Location] 3.1.5 Step 1.e: Define the Techniques to be Used (Optional) [Status] Closed [Priority] High [Current Text] Entire section [Suggested Change] This section requires completely rewriting to make it clear we are talking about the evaluation techniques not the web-design techniques. [Rationale] This heading suggests that I will find information about the techniques that the evaluator expects to use during his/her evaluation. (I.E –robots to evaluate HTML and CSS code, toolbar to evaluate semantic structure on a page-by-page basis, screen-reader to confirm that audio output matches visual output. Etc..). Instead I find reference to the recommended techniques that a developer should use to build a compliant site.. At this stage of the evaluation process we have not even explored the site – so there is no way of knowing which "recommended techniques" have been used. Also remove the link to WCAG 2.0 Techniques. [Resolution] 
Resolution: Link the first occurrence of the term "techniques" to http://www.w3.org/TR/UNDERSTANDING-WCAG20/intro.html#introduction-layers-techs-head, to clarify what is meant by this term. Rationale: There seems to be a confusion about the meaning of the term "techniques". The concept of "techniques" in WCAG 2.0 applies for evaluators and developers - they are ways for checking the complaince to Success Criteria.
