Re: Fw: IAccessible2 updates

Hi, Rich.

As there is a whole bunch of issues, then I suggest to rise a thread
for each of them on IA2 mail list. Once we all are on the same page,
then I or Jamie will put necessary changes into IA2 IDL.

I'll start threads for issues mentioned here. Let me know if something
is missed.

Thanks.
Alex.
