[Fwd: Whitepaper: IE 8 beta 1 to include ARIA support]

[Richard Schwerdtfeger]

Yes. You beat me to it.

Other than getting ATs to support ARIA in IE I would say that this removed
the major roadblock for ARIA support. This gives us well over 90% of the
browser market when you add the support in FF and Opera.
