Is it true that the W3C has not done a spec for Flash? If that is so
why?

Because Flash is a proprietary product!

So, the W3C is the web's standards body, and they only define guidelines for making official W3C technologies accessible.


And WCAG 1.0 guideline 11 also states "Use W3C technologies and guidelines"
http://www.w3.org/TR/WAI-WEBCONTENT/#gl-use-w3c

It's also worth noting that, by definition, Flash cannot be 100% accessible (as there will always be the initial hurdle of certain browsing environments or assistive technologies not being able to understand, or hook into, a flash movie).
