First Public Working Draft: SVG Accessibility API Mappings 1.0 (SVG-AAM)

SVG Accessibility API Mappings 1.0 (SVG-AAM) was published today as a First Public Working Draft by the Protocols and Formats Working Group and SVG Working Group. This specification allows SVG authors to create accessible rich internet applications, including charts, graphs, and other drawings. It provides SVG-specific guidance to define how the SVG user agent must respond to keyboard focus, native SVG features, and role, state, and property attributes provided in web content via WAI-ARIA. SVG-AAM is the first technology-specific module that provides accessibility API mapping support for features in WAI-ARIA 1.1; other technology-specific mappings will follow.
