Today's code for the orionInfoArea is: <aside aria-live="assertive" aria-atomic="true" role="complementary" tabindex="0" style="" class="orion-info" id="orionInfoArea"> <div class="orion-info-message" id="orionInfoMessage">2.0M2 is on January 25th</div> <div class="orion-info-link" id="orionInfoLink"> [more info...]</div> </aside> If we take a look at the recommendations for aria-live regions: http://www.w3.org/WAI/PF/aria-practices/#LiveRegions I think it should not be "assertive", I think it should be aria-live="polite" instead. Does this region update live? i.e. the user does not have to refresh the page, and new news will appear? If not, then maybe it isn't even a live region. If it does update "live", then does it update completely? i.e. there's always a completely new info and link(s)? Or can a new info item get added? I am wondering if it needs to be aria-atomic="true" or not.
