Stefan,

I think I would like to add one or two more pieces of evidence:

User Agent Accessibility Guidelines Working Draft Published

27 June 2001: The User Agent Accessibility Guidelines Working Group
has published a Working Draft of User Agent Accessibility Guidelines
1.0 in response to Last Call comments.
http://www.w3.org/TR/2001/WD-UAAG10-20010622/

This document provides guidelines for designing user agents that
lower barriers to Web accessibility for people with visual, hearing,
physical, and cognitive disabilities. Comments are invited. Read
about the W3C Web Accessibility Initiative. (News archive)

.........and this needs to be entered into evidence..

Techniques for User Agent Accessibility Guidelines Working Draft
Published
27 June 2001: The User Agent Accessibility Guidelines Working Group
has released a new Working Draft of Techniques for User Agent
Accessibility Guidelines 1.0.
http://www.w3.org/TR/2001/WD-UAAG10-TECHS-20010622/

This document is a companion to UAAG 1.0, and covers the
accessibility of user interfaces, content rendering, application
programming interfaces (APIs), and languages such as HTML, CSS, and
SMIL. Comments are welcome. (News archive)


notice that (TUAAG1.0) mentions for languages such as HTML, CSS, SMIL

maybe this along with
XLINK
http://www.w3.org/TR/xlink/

XBASE
http://www.w3.org/TR/xmlbase/

SVG can finally move to recommendation status.....I am a patient
person...and www-svg@... is still active with linguistic and
semantic meaning of certain parts of the specification...so maybe a
little time and few revisions...and W3C will have a great
recommendation that the SVG community can use and build upon in the
future (SVG 2.0?) ..

just some thoughts....

We all learn by sharing what we know
