2 FIXED bugs. Details are in section 2.
1 REOPENED bug. Details are in section 3.

Details are as follows.


1. WONTFIX BUG:

1.1 Bug 10518: "Add example showing how to use <a> elements in image
maps" reported by Leif Halvard Silli.
Ian's Rationale: "Whether it's inside or adjacent doesn't seem to
materially affect how easy this is to maintain. I don't mind using the
other style if we have reason to include another example, but at this
point this seems like bikeshedding on an example."

2. FIXED BUGS:

2.1 Bug 10486: "References to "image" ARIA role should be "img""
reported by Maciej Stachowiak.
Ian's Rationale: "Ok, I think I got them all. Please reopen the bug if
I missed any."

3. REOPENED BUG:

3.1 Bug 10066: "replace section 3.2.6 with the alternative spec text
provided (ARIA)" reported by Steve Faulkner.
Reopened by Sam Ruby. Sam's comment:
"Per
http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-html/2011Mar/0005.html :
The HTML Working Group hereby adopts the ARIA in HTML5: change some
role mappings Proposal for ISSUE-129, with some specific exclusions.
Of the Change Proposals before us, this one has drawn the weaker
objections.
http://www.w3.org/html/wg/wiki/ChangeProposals/ARIAinHTML5
The specific exclusions are:
 * Any changes to how <hgroup> elements are to be interpreted, or how
headings contained within such an <hgroup> are to be interpreted.
 * Allowing slider, scrollbar, or progressbar for <button>, <input
type=image>, or <input type=image>
 * Allowing progressbar, radio, slider, or scrollbar for <a>
 * Allowing button, checkbox, option, radio, slider, spinbutton, or
scrollbar on <h1>-<h6>
Please execute the remaining edits specified in the Change Proposal."

4. INVALID BUG:

4.1 Bug 7601: "refer to pronunciations for TTS PLS with link rel value
'pronunciation'" reported by Nick Levinson.
Ian's Rationale: "Putting the link relation on the wiki page is
sufficient to reserve it, but it also has to be implemented to
actually be of any use in the world (and that's a prerequisite to
being added to the spec, in principle). Discussion of this kind of
thing is probably best done in one of the W3C lists such as
public-html or the voice-related working group mailing lists."

both short and longer textual descriptions associated to the element."
reported by John Foliot.
http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=12228
