Re: [orca-list] Support for ARIA

[Willie Walker <William Walker sun com>]

Hi Everett:

Scott Haeger did a fair amount of ARIA work for Orca via a Mozilla 
Foundation grant:

http://live.gnome.org/Orca/Firefox/ARIAWidgets
http://live.gnome.org/Orca/Firefox/LiveRegions

We haven't done a lot of testing or development on it this year, though, 
 so some of the work might be stale.

One thing I really want to see us do soon is evaluate Orca's 
effectiveness at accessing the known ARIA-enabled toolkits out there 
(Dojo, Google, Yahoo) and improve the support.  If this is something 
you'd be willing to take on, it would be AWESOME!
