Should it help.....I have worked on 9241-171 and 151. I jumped in in the
later stages, but things like creating a normative reference to WCAG and
other harmonization efforts were discussed at length.

Yes I do Don. The problem is that some of them you have to pay for. ISO
9241-171 and ANSI HFES 200 are the key software accessibility standards.
Both of these software accessibility standards are harmonized with each
other and considered 1194.21 as they were being developed. I think it
would be helpful to see how the current 1194.21 provisions are addressed
in those standards.

I can provide some information on this early next week.

Nice to meet you again Luke. :-)
I think that here there are at least 3-4 people that are also ISO experts (i'm sure about Jim, me and you... But i can have missed some posts).

ISO 9241-171 is not yet ended and is under development.
Remember also that is not possible to reproduce more than 10% of an ISO document.
Here in Venice, where i've host the iso experts meeting in february we have work hard for optimization of this document (Luke was here, and Jim was connected via skype and Can confirm this)..
I think that we caretrieve the main principles of this iso.
