Greetings, WebAIM:

I thought I'd post four more items on this subject of ebooks/ePub,
and then, I'll stop.

But I think these are valuable additions to what I posted the other day.

I hope those working on HTML5, CSS, etc. will especially take note of
the summary of the recent W3C workshop and help to foster standards
harmonization.

Best,
Jennifer
