-- [checkpoint 4.13]� Say instead: Allow the user to control the volume of synthesized speech, independently from the volume of audio from other sources. Rationale: Saying "the synthesized speech volume" implies "the volume of _the_ synthesized speech" and it is not clear that the second definite article is appropriate.� There may be more than one source or track of synthesized speech.� Should say something that equates with "the volume of _any_ synthesized speech," for which the suggested rewording is clearer.� Also, "independently from" is better usage than "independently of." -- There appears to be something funny in the PDF extraction, where whitespace gets inserted when link content abuts punctuation.� See e.g. end of third paragraph under section 1.2. -- Under Guideline 6, third bullet, where it says] ���� * W3C specifications are developed in a consensus process (refer to ������ the process defined by the W3C Process Document ������ [392][W3CPROCESS]). W3C encourages the public to review and ������ comment on specifications at all times during their development, ������ from Working Draft to Candidate Recommendation (for implementation ������ experience) to Proposed Recommendation. [...] There should be _no comma_.� The sentence with the comma is false.� The W3C only invites public scrutiny once a public working draft is released, not "at all times during their development." The comma indicates a non-restrictive modifier, which makes the statement false. -- In section 3.4 it ignores section 3.3.� It should not.� For example, where it says ���� * Conformance Level "A": all Priority 1 checkpoints are satisfied It would better be excessively clear in tying in 3.3 with ���� * Conformance Level "A": all applicable (per 3.3) Priority 1 checkpoints are satisfied -- The Note in section 3.7 should be marked explicitly "Note in Draft" and not just "Note" to indicate that this Note _will be removed_ when the document attains its target status. Al -- Usage in headers.� Comments in response to the last call request for comments have been classified S1, S2, or E based on the following rough scale: S1: Substantive matter of the first (highest) criticality or importance to the mission of the document.� The standard set is ineffective, the document is self contradictory, etc. S2: Substantive matter of a somewhat lower criticality.� The document is hard to comprehend, does not align well with related WAI documents, etc. E: Editorial matters.� Not regarded as substantive.
