>Dear WAI Interest Group Participants,
>
>The W3C WAI User Agent Accessibility Guidelines (UAAG) Working Group
>invites you to comment on updated UAAG documents published 19 July 2011:
>* User Agent Accessibility Guidelines (UAAG) 2.0 Working Draft
> http://www.w3.org/TR/UAAG20/
>* Implementing UAAG 2.0 Working Draft
> http://www.w3.org/TR/Implementing-UAAG20/
>
>Changes in the updated UAAG 2.0 Working Draft include:
>* New organization - the order of the Principles has been changed to
>more closely reflect WCAG.
>* Focus - the success criteria related to focus have been separated
>into more discrete, testable success criteria.
>* Media - success criteria that were not required for accessibility
>were removed.
>
>The Working Group is looking for feedback on these changes along
>with the specific questions listed in the Status section at:
> http://www.w3.org/TR/UAAG20/#status
>
>Implementing UAAG 2.0 Working Draft provides additional information
>about the guidelines and success criteria, including intent,
>examples, and resources. This draft is mostly complete, although
>guidance for some success criteria is still to be written. Comments
>are welcome on the existing information as well as suggestions for
>the information yet to be written.

>WAI encourages people with disabilities and developers of browsers,
>assistive technologies, plug-ins, extensions, and accessibility APIs
>(application programming interfaces) to provide feedback on these
>drafts. Please send comments to the publicly-archived list:

>Background:
>UAAG defines how browsers, media players, and other "user agents"
>should support accessibility for people with disabilities and work
>with assistive technologies. UAAG is part of a series of
>accessibility standards developed by WAI, including Web Content
>Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) and Authoring Tool Accessibility
>Guidelines (ATAG). UAAG 2.0 is currently informative only. For more
>information on UAAG and WAI standards, see:

>Please let us know if you have any questions. Thank you in advance
>for your comments.
