Hi Katie,
Similar to James’ point about HTML5, we should definitely have a task to compare that & refine the definition with that in mind.
From a quick search, is this the spec you mean?

There doesn’t look to be a huge amount of overlap (there aren’t many ‘controls’ in ePub in general) but a careful look at the TOC & epub:type looks to be a good starting point.
Thanks,

I think it is important to point out here that ePUB also has a fixed Accessibility taxonomy…..
…another reason we need to be sure to be working also with the new W3C ePub/dPub community in general and the dPub Accessibility Task Force specifically.
