Re: Reminder: Call for Review: Before and After Demonstration (BAD)

Now is the perfect time to implement ARIA landmarks.  They are supported

final spec, at least not for items that have no issues
.

Dear Jon,

Including WAI-ARIA examples is certainly something we would like to do 
once the specification is out of its current draft status.

Best,
