A5: here's the latest discussion about it afaik:

I don't know saass well enough to improve this answer ("not 
sure"). A concise definition would certainly help. For example, 
does CI / CD (something codeberg is planning to provide) count as 
SaaSS? It certainly is doing computing on users' behalf, but sr.ht 
also offers it but passed the A5 criterion 
(https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/repo-criteria-discuss/2021-03/msg00004.html, 
from Jack Pearson, date: Fri, 5 Mar 2021 13:12:32 -0800).

A3: here's what I could find in previous discussions about it:

> 2.Follows the Web “Content” Accessibility Guidelines 2.0 (WCAG

I am not familiar with WCAG or HTML_CodeSniffer and I don't know 
what is the implication of having 230 errors using 
HTML_CodeSniffer (sounds like it failed the criterion?), so I 
marked it as todo. I can take another look later.
