Hi Gregory, Thanks for doing this. Some thoughts: 1. In http://www.w3.org/WAI/UA/wiki/AccessModule/AccessElement I'm wondering about what "optionally, in some other event being delivered" could be taken to mean... ...maybe the wording should be more precise. Your example of highlighting is more a UI implementation than an "other event that is delivered". 2. In http://www.w3.org/WAI/UA/wiki/AccessModule/ActivateAttribute I think the word "override" in the third sentence was really important. Let's tersify. 3. In http://www.w3.org/WAI/UA/wiki/AccessModule/KeyMappingBinding I want to tersify some more and some of the information seems like it belongs in the Activate heading. Cheers, Jan Gregory J.
