Hi,
I'm a member of wai-pf and wcag, and met some of you at the web apps face to 
face in redmond recently.  I was reading through the widgets 1.0 requirements 
spec, and came across this accessibility requirement.  Wondering why only 
should and may here, and not must?

R37. Language Accessibility

A conforming specification must specify that the language used to declare the 
user interface of a widget be either 
HTML<http://www.w3.org/TR/widgets-reqs/#html> or a language that is accessible 
at various levels: it should provide keyboard access to interactive graphical 
elements, and provide means to access the widget's functionality through an 
non-graphical UI. The declared interface may also be accessible to screen 
readers, allowing relevant sections of text and functionality to be accessed by 
non-visual means.

Also, I noticed references to google and yahoo web gadgets documentation, and 
wondered if you'd seen the Windows Live Gadgets SDK [1]?

Thanks,
Cynthia
