    This is a Call for Consensus (CfC) to the ARIA Working Group on the
    question of publishing a fourth (4th) release of the Note ARIA Authoring
    Practices 1.1. The content to be published can be found at:
    https://nam01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fraw.githack.com%2Fw3c%2Faria-practices%2Fapg-1.1r4-candidate%2Faria-practices.html&amp;data=02%7C01%7Ciali%40ets.org%7Cbeb0335b62b843fa1f1b08d70a0e4b08%7C0ba6e9b760b34fae92f37e6ddd9e9b65%7C0%7C0%7C636988928825071184&amp;sdata=D%2Bu3LSWr%2B5%2FfXlpDRxKzwlVuUfNxPSpLS%2BZKWovPqVs%3D&amp;reserved=0


    Summary of changes

    Major additions and revisions:

    * Added section providing guidance on coding and composing accessible
       names and descriptions. This section comprehensively covers ARIA and
       HTML naming and describing techniques as well as specific guidance for
       every ARIA role.
    * Added example of a site navigation bar ( " menu system " ) with
       dropdown lists of links coded using the disclosure pattern.
    * Added an example of a date picker based on the dialog and grid
       patterns. A modal dialog contains a calendar grid that presents
       buttons for each day of a month.
    * Added an example of a date picker that uses three spin buttons for
       day, month, and year.
    * Image Carousel Example: Updated the example so that the rotation
       control is always visible instead of only being visible for keyboard
       users who move focus into the carousel region. Also changed the
       controls so they are implemented with HTML button elements instead of
       links with the button  role.
    * Toolbar Example: Added popup text labels for icons that are displayed
       on both hover and focus.

    Minor revisions of guidance or implementation were made to the following
    design patterns and examples:

    * Editor Menubar Example: Updated example so that meta data used by the
       scripts is specified using data-  attributes instead of with rel
       attributes.
    * Radio Group with Active Descendant Example: Removed unused keycodes
       and fixed linting issues.
