I just want to make sure this group is familiar with W3C’s Web Annotation Data Model https://www.w3.org/TR/annotation-model/. I’ve copied Rob Sanderson who helped author it. Tzviya Siegman Information Standards Lead Wiley 201-748-6884 tsiegman@wiley.com<mailto:tsiegman@wiley.com> From: Aaron Leventhal [mailto:aleventhal@google.com] Sent: Friday, May 11, 2018 10:36 AM To: ARIA Working Group <public-aria@w3.org> Subject: Microsoft's ARIA annotations proposal Hello, I was reading the ARIA annotations issue<https://github.com/w3c/aria/issues/749> and the linked Microsoft Position Paper on Annotations<https://www.w3.org/2014/04/annotation/submissions/Microsoft_Position_Paper_on_Annotations.pdf>. All I can say is, yes, we need this. With perhaps a few minor tweaks, the proposal is already pretty solid. It would solve a lot of real problems in group document editors. This would be very helpful for end users. I'd like to see annotations sooner than the 1.4 time frame, and look forward to implementing in Chrome, and working with platform API specs and AT vendors as well. I propose we get this on the agenda for an upcoming meeting. Thank you, Aaron
