Hi everyone 
 
I'm doing some research on the World Wide Web Consortium's website accessibility guidelines. 
 
One of the criticisms of WCAG 2.0 has been that it doesn't pay enough attention to the access needs of visually impaired people and people with learning disabilities. I can see that the new WCAG 2.1 tries to address these issues.
 
I was wondering whether anyone could tell me if there is a consensus yet on how successful the new WCAG is at resolving the shortcomings of earlier versions? 
 
Many thanks for your help. 
 
Clive
