Dear David Faure, Maciej Stachowiak, and Marco Pesenti Gritti,
 
We (Matt May and JP Schnapper-Casteras) are starting
an informal initiative to encourage and assist with the 
implementation of the User Agent Accessibility Guidelines (UAAG) 1.0 
for user agents running on Linux, including browsers such as 
Konqeoror, Mozilla, and Galeon, and multimedia players such as 
Noatun, Gstreamer, or Xine. The UAAG 1.0 is a set of guidelines for 
the development of user agents (software that retrieves and renders 
Web content) that are accessible (can be used by persons with 
disabilities). UAAG 1.0 is currently a Proposed Recommendation, 
which means that, if all goes well, it should become a W3C 
Recommendation by the end of this year.  Here are some links that 
might help you get started:
 
Summary of UAAG 1.0:
  http://www.w3.org/TR/UAAG10/uaag10-summary
 
The latest UAAG 1.0:
  http://www.w3.org/TR/UAAG10/
 
The latest Techniques:
  http://www.w3.org/TR/UAAG10-TECHS/
 
The Techniques document discusses implementation details that
should be helpful to understanding how to satisfy the requirements 
of UAAG 1.0.
 
Implementation report, also a good starting point for implementation 
ideas:

If you have questions about UAAG 1.0 or would like to submit
an implementation report, please send your comments to us
at the UAWG's public mailing list, w3c-wai-ua at w3.org.
List archives are available at:

Also, if you do implement or start implementing UAAG 1.0 in your 
user agent, please let us know.
 
Thanks so much for your help and your support of accessibility efforts.
 
Best regards,
