"I suppose this is late in the game now, but I think a good
step by step presentation on the accessibility stack would be
helpful for many of us in the software/web group. How does
MSAA or UI, accessibility-API, etc all fit together
currently, and where these interlocking layers of
accessibility may be going might be helpful. Would
anyone like to set up a 2 or 3 member group to pull
together something like this for a future meeting?"

We have a burgeoning list of topics for presentation at TEITAC
plenaries, all of which are worthy. But I'm wondering if, given the
scarcity and infrequency of face-to-face, it wouldn't be better
to create an archivable webcast instead. That way, immediately
interested attendees could participate and others would have a
rich resource for future reference.
