Greetings:

I'd like to add, to John's mentioning of the IDPF, this page:
http://www.w3.org/dpub/

So, it looks pretty clear to me that the W3C is working quite closely
and actively with Digital Publishing on many levels.

Frankly, as far as my understanding of collaboration among
standards-making projects, that's been true for decades, now, ever
since things started with SGML, and then XML, and the DAISY
Consortium (specifications which *always* sought/still do seek) to
align with the W3C.

This is far more about paper/style guide and digital/style alignment
than it is about accessibility, as far as I am concerned.

Bevi, I've seen you bring up these kinds of issues many times, over
the years, but the WebAIM email list is not the W3C. Maybe you'd feel
more heard if you started bringing your ideas to the right place(s).
And if you do, you may find that more is going on than you may have
the impression is so.

Best,
Jennifer
