For anyone interested in tracking Web2.0 accessibility support (ARIA) in
WebKit, I urge you to follow:
https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12132

And don't forget to vote for bugs you think are important!

I'm beginning to wonder if there is something potentially amiss with
your email server Alp -- really. Did you get the invites to join our
user agent ARIA implementor group calls?  Apple showed up.

I'll keep blogging about ARIA efforts inside and outside of Firefox, and
I look forward to some WebKit updates :)
