If anybody as a real problem accessing Bugzilla, we suggest that they email the chairs, and copy the list, with clear instructions like "please open a bugzilla entry on my behalf with the following description: ..." There I was thinking that, "Listbox, unspecified" was a bit ambiguous, when all the time it was perfectly accessible. The same for all the "colon combo box" announcements I hear when I try to use Bugzilla. It's strange that there's nothing in WCAG 2.0 that suggests people may write to you in the hope you will do things on their behalf, being considered equivalent access; maybe they never thought of it? I thought Bugzilla was very inaccessible, but it's reassuring that you and Sam don't consider the barrier to be very high. I take it you didn't come to that conclusion using assistive technologies or assessing Bugzilla against WCAG 2.0. I hope I can trust the person that's going to do things on my behalf with my banking.
