Awards Criteria Question
So I was browsing through the awards criteria for the website award, and it all seemed pretty straightforward and logical until I came to this question:

9.7.2.4 Structure and Navigation: Do links open new, separate browsers windows?

I thought about it, and I couldn't decide it the meaning was that all links should open new windows, or none should. I can see a case for both sides- having links open in new windows can be useful when you're directing to another website, but if every link in your navigation opens a new window, it won't take the user long to have filled up their entire toolbar with just your site.

Is this just finding a happy medium, worded strangely? Any thoughts?
