That would be terrific! I know that the widget framework for jQuery has WAI-ARIA support, but I don't know how extensive it is in practical use. There's also theming so it's easy to make light-on-dark as well as dark-on-light and the ability to turn off animations entirely, but other things like keyboard navigability or similar, I'm afraid I know nothing about.

Hmm, here are the jQuery demos for testing (I think the widgets column is what you'll be after?)


I used Dojo for one project, a long time ago, but it was a one-off, and I wasn't looking at it with an eye towards accessibility -- I'm just about to start looking through the links that [personal profile] ktiedt provided to learn more.

Anyway, I'm really interested to see how both of these stack up, and whether either is a clear winner, or whether it could go either way, and if we could get real world information that would be fantastic.
