This is a mass migration from Mozilla Labs :: Bespin to Bespin :: General.

This bug likely still needs to be triaged and categorized.

The idea behind a tracking bug is that all related bugs that need to be fixed are marked as depending on this bug. Then, you can always come right here to find out which bugs are accessibility-related.

Rephrasing to reflect intent of this bug. Note that exposing the editor text inside of the canvas element relates to bug 495912.

It might relate. The best accessibility solution for Bespin might be to support our core gecko accessibility layer. I don't know if this fits Bespin's roadmap though, WRT target platforms.
ACETRANSITION

The Skywriter project has merged with Ajax.org's Ace project (the full server part of which is their Cloud9 IDE project). Background on the change is here:

http://mozillalabs.com/skywriter/2011/01/18/mozilla-skywriter-has-been-merged-into-ace/

The bugs in the Skywriter product are not necessarily relevant for Ace and quite a bit of code has changed. For that reason, I'm closing all of these bugs. Problems that you have with Ace should be filed in the Ace issue tracker at GitHub:
