Re: ARIA technique: error notification with role=alert / aria-live

Thanks Loretta. I hope Joshue / Andrew will take this up.
It is not ok for me to modify the current technique without discussions / approval of the WG.
As it was  a substantial re-write, I made a new Wiki page for it.
The content can be moved to the current page without too much of a problem if approved. 
I will miss the meeting of Jan 7.
Regards,
Sailesh

Given the time frame for including techniques in our next update, I suggest that you take this directly to the working group. By the time it goes through the task force and the working group, it will surely miss the deadline.

Note that this technique had already been accepted by the working group for publication. At this stage, it would probably have been better to create a new wiki entry for the revised version, but I will let Andrew and Josh handle the logistics of how and whether to include which version.
