Staff contact position for IndieUI WG posted

W3C has opened an accessibility engineer position that will impact the
IndieUI WG:

http://www.w3.org/Consortium/Recruitment/#wai - the title is "Web
Accessibility Engineer (2)"

It is our expectation that the person who fills this role will take over
from me as staff contact to the IndieUI Working Group, and this is
specifically mentioned in the description. The position is mainly
focused on mobile accessibility and IndieUI is relevant to that. This
will also help us to balance our staff responsibilities amongst Working
Groups.

There will of course be a transition period while the new person gets up
to speed, and I expect to overlap the role for some time to help with
the transition. Even after that I'll still be around to help out if
needed, and in the short term I expect no changes until the new person
has come on board.

If you know of anybody who would be suitable for this position, please
forward the reference to them. The position is based in China at Beihang
University, so candidates would need to have work authorization there.
