Thanks Bill,

I have rephrased the sentence as follows. If the group wants to remove the
links page we can do that too. In addition, I would be happy to remove any
links that the group feels are inappropriate. I just need to have input
regarding what to delete/add:

>The following links provide information related to accessibility standards
>and compliance that may be helpful to the FSG Accessibility Workgroup and
>associated members. Please note that this is a private list and is not
intended to be all
>inclusive.

Hi Sharon:

Thanks for doing this.

I am concerned that the wording regarding the 'links' list reinforces
the perception that the list might be a public (rather than private)
resource - especially since we invite people to propose other links for
inclusion!

I think we should avoid this by not having such a list - either omitting
the list altogether or making it very clear that these links are
"private" to the project.

I remain unconvinced that we should include any links that are not
directly cited by our internal documents or forming the direct basis of
our standardization process.

- Bill
