*About WAI-ARIA*
WAI-ARIA defines a way to make web content, particularly web applications, more
accessible to people with disabilities. It especially helps with dynamic
content and advanced user interface controls developed with Ajax, HTML,
JavaScript, and related technologies. It is introduced in:
WAI-ARIA Overview
http://www.w3.org/WAI/intro/aria
WAI-ARIA works with existing web content technologies, such as HTML, and provides a
way to apply the requirements of Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.0 for
rich web applications. Accessibility standards developed by the W3C Web Accessibility
Initiative (WAI) are listed in WAI Guidelines and Techniques at:
<http://www.w3.org/WAI/guid-tech.html>.
The WAI-ARIA User Agent Implementation Guide is for developers of web browsers
and other user agents. It describes how user agents should support WAI-ARIA;
specifically, how to expose WAI-ARIA features to platform accessibility APIs
(application programming interfaces).
*Versions*
The PFWG is working on a few changes for WAI-ARIA 1.1, and considering more changes
for WAI-ARIA 2.0. The in-progress updates to WAI-ARIA 1.1 are available in an
Editors' Draft at <http://www.w3.org/WAI/PF/aria-1.1/>
The status of WAI-ARIA versions is updated in the WAI-ARIA FAQ at
<http://www.w3.org/WAI/aria/faq#status>
Please let us know if you have any questions.
Feel free to circulate this message to other lists; please avoid cross-postings
where possible.
