That's a very important point, David. Not only is HTML5 still in draft,
there are parts of ARIA that are sill not completely set in stone. This
is another reason why providing some sort of release time frame is
difficult; the technologies are a moving target.

Greetings Everyone,
The HTML 5 Specification is currently a Draft and not a Recommendation. This means
that browsers should not be officially supporting it. The reason for this is stated in
the HTML 5 Specification under "Status of this document" section quoted below.
"Implementors should be aware that this specification is not stable. Implementors
who are not taking part in the discussions are likely to find the specification changing
out from under them in incompatible ways. Vendors interested in implementing this
specification before it eventually reaches the Candidate Recommendation stage should join
the aforementioned mailing lists and take part in the discussions."
Until the Draft becomes a Recommendation no one should be writing
documents in HTML 5 format. Once the Draft becomes a Recommendation and is
implemented by browsers then GW Micro can fully add support for new and changed
elements to Window-Eyes.
