Re: wai-aria FAQ page [rough draft]

Thanks Sharron! I put it online at 
http://www.w3.org/WAI/EO/Drafts/ARIA/faq.html

A few thoughts from quick skim:
* Could you add a first question that points to the WAI-ARIA Overview. (e.g., perhaps like the first paragraph of the first WCAG 2 FAQ question points to its overview: http://www.w3.org/WAI/WCAG20/wcag2faq#docs)
* Make it more generic and not just related to HTML 5; e.g., delete the first question "FAQ: ARIA in HTML"
* "What is ARIA and how does it allow for accessible JavaScript widgets?" seems pretty complex for a first FAQ. What about putting others first &/or breaking this up?
* Please take the list out of "9. Who supports ARIA?" -- I'm concerned that it's too close to the line of vendor-neutrality and also maintaining it. How about putting a general statement about some doing it, and then pointing to the Mozilla page for details?
* For "4. Is ARIA available now?" we need to clarify the status within the W3C Recommendation Track Process! This is a good place to point to http://www.w3.org/WAI/intro/w3c-process (and also perhaps copy some wording from the WCAG 2 FAQ). This is also related to "What's the state of ARIA standardization?". Perhaps this should be merged and/or moved higher?

All for now...
