WHATWG takeover already noted.  (Also this list is about 
accessibilility, not HTML, and is not limited to HTML.)

However, I think this would be more relevant to ARIA, than HTML, given 
that, since very early on HTML authors have rejected semantic HTML, and 
standard OS user interfaces.  ARIA is a mechanism for describing the 
semantic intent of HTML when the actual HTML is being used for its 
presentational effects.
