We need to get ahead of the curve. We need to put requirements on the new working groups to provide us with authoring scenarios that support accessibility while they are still working on the language/markup. They should be able to create the scenarios [techniques] with guidance from the existing ATAG guidelines. I also think we need collaboration with internationalization on tools being developed for translation and collaboration with CC/PP on tools that will transcode or add meta information for CC/PP cable browsers and servers - so that we both know where they will benefit accessibility.
