Please note: This list of discrepancies within EN 301 549 v.3.2.1 is not the result of, nor intended to represent, a comprehensive review.
Recommended insertions and corrections are highlighted. I have endeavored to render the proposed changes identifiable by screen readers. If, however, the markup fails to achieve that result, please advise.
