David,
I think you are reading things differently to me. I don't know the
authors true intention, but I read his words as being a call for "anyone
who wants to see ARIA implemented" to join their team, not necessarily
"someone who is on the ARIA team".

I do also agree with the sentiments though - there is an obvious need to
treat 'applications' differently from 'content' in quite a number of
ways, and at the moment there is not even a way to signal this
explicitly.

Regards,
Mike

Subject: [WSG] Javascript & Accessibility

Interesting blog entry by the creators of the Cappuccino project
(http://cappuccino.org) on the subject on Web Accessibility vs
JavaScript Availability:

Personally im in favour of the distinction he makes, but the expectation
for the WAI ARIA team to contact _them_ to help their framework use it
is rather unrealistic although the WAI ARIA team (as with the W3C in
general) need to start producing more palatable documentation rather
than just having huge technical manuals on the subject.

Interested to know others thoughts on the subject.

David
