WAI-ARIA Authoring Practices

[Joseph Scheuhammer <clown alum mit edu>]

From the W3C website (http://www.w3.org):

" The Protocols and Formats Working Group (PFWG) has published an 
updated Working Draft of WAI-ARIA 1.0 Authoring Practices: An author's 
guide to understanding and implementing Accessible Rich Internet 
Applications. It provides detailed advice and examples to make widgets, 
navigation, and behaviors accessible using WAI-ARIA roles, states, and 
properties. It is primarily for web application developers, and is also 
useful for user agent and assistive technology developers. Please send 
comments by 5 April 2013."

Note that the Authoring Practices is a work-in-progress.  This is an 
interim public draft based on two-plus years of improvements to the 
previous draft.  Further modifications are expected before a final 1.0 
release.
