The WCAG Working Group has a reprehensible recent history of simply ignoring outside expert advice. ("Semantics," people. "Semantics.") You don't have enough expert bodies to work on JavaScript techniques; you've now been offered another expert body. I fully expect the Working Group to either: * ignore the offer * deny that PPK is an expert * dispute the definition of "expert" since it already has a sense in the W3C lexicon Don't look a gift horse in the mouth. Take PPK up on his offer. -- Joe Clark | joeclark@joeclark.org Accessibility <http://joeclark.org/access/> --This. --What's wrong with top-posting?
