http://www.w3.org/TR/2007/WD-UAAG20-requirements-20071031/ I'd like to see more mention of ARIA and HTML 5. There is a lot happening there. What would be useful to me would be exact guidelines as to how to expose these things via various a11y APIs. I have no idea how to expose content to Universal Access. However, I can help provide info on how to expose to ATK/AT-SPI or MSAA/IAccessible2. ATs can't rely on the DOM alone -- layout info is necessary. The next thing that would be useful would be test cases and automated tests that check browsers to see if they expose content to these APIs the same way. This API stuff is 75% of the work we have to do to make Firefox accessible. Can the UAWG say how much it can commit to be involved in coordinating with the community on this, defining correct mappings and testing them? Does UAWG consider itself the right place to deal with these platform specifics in such detail? I'd like to see docs like this but for HTML etc.: http://developer.mozilla.org/en/docs/ARIA_User_Agent_Implementors_Guide - Aaron
