This is an archived snapshot of W3C's public bugzilla bug tracker, decommissioned in April 2019. Please see the home page for more details.
Currently the aria section states for certain elements "ARIA restricts usage of this role to one per page" this is too vague. suggest changing it to something more accurate such as: 'usage of this role is restricted to one per parent element with a role="document"'

For more details, see this document: http://dev.w3.org/html5/decision-policy/decision-policy.html Status: Partially Accepted Change Description: see diff given below Rationale: I just removed the parentheticals altogether, since they were a bit out of place... everything in ARIA has restrictions, it was a bit weird just to call these out specifically.
