XHTML Access Module; Comments Welcome

   The XHTML2 Working Group has published the First Public Working
   Draft of XHTML Access Module. This document is intended to help make
   XHTML-family markup languages more effective at supporting the needs
   of the accessibility community. It does so by providing a generic
   mechanism for defining the relationship between document components
   and well-known accessibility taxonomies. Learn more about the HTML
   Activity.
