> Key: DERBY-5181
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-5181
> Project: Derby
> Issue Type: Sub-task
> Components: Documentation
> Affects Versions: 10.7.1.1
> Reporter: Kim Haase
> Assignee: Rick Hillegas
> Attachments: RELEASE-NOTES.html,
> derby-5181-01-aa-accessibleReleaseNoteGeneration.diff
>
>
> The top-level RELEASE-NOTES.html file uses the <blockquote> tag to indent the
> text. This looks nice and improves readability, but it violates the WCAG
> accessibility guideline 3.7, which says,
> "Mark up quotations. Do not use quotation markup for formatting effects such
> as indentation."
> You can use a CSS stylesheet for formatting, however.
