Let's try and capture on this page the work and goals we have for 2009.

Gecko

  • Bugfixing of course.
  • WAI-ARIA 1.0 completeness
  • HTML 5 related accessibility
  • Performance testing and profiling
  • Code refactoring
    • Maybe best to do in small iterations, as we go.
  • Get Mac accessibility to point where we it is included in default builds.
    • Is lazy instantiation easy on Mac?

Community and Outreach

  • W3C work: WAI-ARIA user agent implementor
  • Evangelism
    • mothering #accessibility
    • work with Assistive Tech folks (NVDA, Orca, FS etc)
      • help triage GNOME FF bugs
  • Cultivate patch contributors

Rough Notes, Ideas, Questions

  • How shall we organize the work?
  • Assist Foundation with grants/giving?
  • Provide domain expertise to other groups? Mobile? Labs?
  • How do the high level Mozilla values and goals prioritize our work and focus, in accessibility? How can we be most effective?
  • SVG, MathML, <video> ...
