Thanks Jukka.

It seems that to achieve 508 compliance you'd go for Priority 1 plus a
few others from priority 2 and 3. Sounds very reasonable.

I'm still not sure if both are required, i.e. will a UK court accept
508, and a US court accept Priority 1 plus a few others from priority 2
and 3? But I suppose if it is so easy to achieve compliance for both
then an answer isn't needed. I'll just do it.
