The ARIA and Assistive Technologies Community Group has been proposed by Matthew King:<\/p>\n
How WAI-ARIA is supported by assistive technologies, such as screen readers, is highly variable. This variation in WAI-ARIA rendering adds unnecessary complexity to the development of high-quality web experiences for users of assistive technologies and places significant limitations on the types of web widgets that can be made widely accessible.<\/p>\n
This community group is dedicated to:<\/p>\n
1. helping assistive technology developers converge on a set of clear norms for baseline support of WAI-ARIA.
\n2. Helping web developers understand the current state of support for WAI-ARIA by assistive technologies.<\/p>\n
WAI-ARIA is as important to assistive technology presentation as CSS is to visual presentation. Join us to help make WAI-ARIA as reliable as CSS.<\/p>\n
