A year ago, I send feedback on the lack of processing requirements in WAI-ARIA: http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-pfwg-comments/2008JanMar/0078.html Now it seems that WAI-ARIA informatively references WAI-ARIA User Agent Implementation Guide. This means that ARIA still lacks proper normative processing requirements on things that are independent of the platform-dependent accessibility API in use. Please normatively define processing requirements for ARIA. P.S. I notice that even though I was invited to re-review ARIA this year during this extended review period, many of my comments from a year ago have gone unaddressed: neither fixed in the spec nor explicitly rejected; despite the Process document saying: "Starting with the First Public Working Draft until the start of a Last Call review, a Working Group SHOULD formally address any substantive review comment about a technical report and SHOULD do so in a timely manner." It is rather demotivating to rereview a document only to find that the previous comments have gone unaddressed. I'm reiterating my comments specifically to invoke this "must" clause in the W3C Process: "Starting with a Last Call review up to the transition to Proposed Recommendation, a Working Group MUST formally address any substantive review comment about a technical report and SHOULD do so in a timely manner." -- Henri Sivonen hsivonen@iki.fi http://hsivonen.iki.fi/
