The definition of accessibility conformance metadata is written from perspective of dc:conformsto, which uses URL, on the other hand ONIX uses codes. This definition should be rewritten in abstract way. Copying the text below:
To report the accessibility conformance of a publication, the metadata term conformsTo must be provided. The conformsTo term requires a specific URL that identifies the level of conformance of the publication. The values for an EPUB publication are:
If a publication is optimized for a particular user group, e.g. an audiobook, it would not conform to WCAG guidelines, but it may be perfectly useable by a particular group, e.g. persons who are blind. In this case, the conformsTo term must point to a URL that identifies the specification used to create the optimized publication.
The improved version is as follows. Further improvements are welcome.
