 sibility - including the need for early help and support\, and how we’re
  making it easier for you to request that.\n\n* What exactly the Accessibl
 e Platform Architectures (APA) WG can provide you with in reviews\; where 
 that advice comes from\; and how you and the review process might contribu
 te to it.\n\n* A new\, more concrete\, direction for the Framework for Acc
 essibility in the Specification of Technologies (FAST)\, which aims to red
 uce the amount of things that come up in review\, by supporting you in wri
 ting specs that consider\, promote\, and enhance accessibility from the ou
 tset.\n\nCredit to Peter Korn for the ‘building it in vs. bolting it on
