Hello,

Just a reminder that public comment on the HTML5 spec as it relates to
accessibility is due by August 3. As Judy Brewer who heads the W3C's Web
Accessibility Initiative notes: "HTML5 is the next revision in the core
markup language of the Web, and offers powerful tools for creating
Web-based applications that will run on any device.
It is imperative that HTML5 meet the needs of all Web users, including
those with disabilities."
