RE: 7 Day Call for Consensus "Requirements for ARIA 1.1"

Comments on Requirements for Accessible Rich Internet Applications 1.1 at

http://w3c.github.io/aria/requirements/aria-requirements.html

 

The abstract includes:

"This is an Editor's Draft of the Protocols and Formats Working Group. "

I assume that should say "ARIA Working Group".

 

Section 6 is:

"Simplify the WAI-ARIA model where possible

WAI-ARIA is designed using a taxonomy of roles, with states and properties, to describe coverage of its feature set. Adherence to the taxonomy has resulted in relationships among features that are not always well understood by users, or seen as necessary. The taxonomy, while still used as a design tool, will be removed from the core specification. Features driven by the taxonomy will be normalized to better reflect their actual intent."

 

We recently pushed an action to hide abstract roles by default out to ARIA 2.0. Does that mean this section should be removed?

 

If not, then what is being removed? Could this be made more specific?
