Hello, http://stevefaulkner.github.io/SVG1.1/ notes: 'Documents must not use any role values with elements in the following table other than those listed for that element in the second column unless allowed by the restrictions defined in the third column.' SVG 1.1 has no such role attribute, only SVG tiny 1.2 has, but this has more a meaning related to the original proposals for role and is not restricted to WAI-ARIA. However, an SVG 1.1 must not contain role attributes and therefore no values for this, that seems to be the only issue, a conformance checker should care about. Respectively, if author want to use it, they may use a role attribute from the XHTML namespace? Or they may use SVG tiny 1.2, but here no such restrictions apply, therefore nothing a conformance checker has to care about... By the way, note that in the current draft the link to 'Definition of Roles' currently points to http://www.w3.org/TR/wai-aria-1.1/roles#role_definitions and this contains as essential information ' 404 Not Found' This is not sufficient. Is this the intended content: http://www.w3.org/TR/2014/WD-wai-aria-1.1-20140612/#role_definitions ? Why not to allow CURIE syntax as in the original proposal for the attribute value? http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml-role/ Olaf
