Subject: Updage to the guidelines


Attached is an update to the Accessibility Guidelines.  The changes are:

1) In section 2.3.1 "Characteristics of Engineered Accessibility Frameworks" I added the what a11y frameworks should be capable of in order to provide a11y support for tables.
2) Changed text in 2.3.2 from "Apple Accessibility API" to "The Mac OS X Accessibility Protocol" and changed the version of its first appearance from OS X 10.4 to 10.2.  See   http://developer.apple.com/documentation/Accessibility/Conceptual/AccessibilityMacOSX/OSXAXModel/chapter_4_section_1.html
3) Changed the glossary entry "Universal Access API" to "Mac OS X Accessibility Protocol" and in that glossary entry used "Max OS X accessibility framework" instead of "“Universal Access” features".
4) Scanned the doc and changed 1.1 to 1.2.
5) Renamed the file to remove 1.1 from file name.

I also checked to see if I could remove section 3.3 (subtables).  This text was motivated by problematic examples in section 8.2.6 of the 1.1 spec and those examples are now gone from the equivalent section 8.1011 of the 1.2 spec.  However, the information in section 3.3 is still valid and an awareness of the issues could be helpful.
