[Accessibility] Candidate Quote 4

[Janina Sajka]

Assistive technology developers are expected to have the expertise needed to provide the specialized interface technology required by persons with
disabilities. However, assistive technology developers must have standard API level support that provides the information required for assistive
technologies to run properly on all applications.

The heterogeneous nature of toolkits, component inter process communication models, libraries, and applications can make the development of robust and
effective assistive technologies difficult, at best. Without standards and binary interface components:

We are delighted that the Free Standards Group has convened an international Accessibility Workgroup to provide this support in open consensus standards.
