Hi, 

Some comments on Pete's comments ...

What about also including time and room for expanded CSUN sessions? We
have both Expert Handlers and IAccessible2 with their own full sessions.
Let's drive participation.

Well, not yet. I suspect it's more probably a specification at this
point? Of course, it's going to become an Open A11y standard, right? As
soon as the IA2 group forwards it as finished, Gregory can put our html
wrapper around the files and the main Open A11y Wg can vote to forward
it to the LF Board. Their vote makes it an Open A11y / LF standard. It's
then our call whether to move it on to ISO--again, our option.
