Great news for OATS. Aaron Leventhal, the lead of Mozilla Accessibility, is
one of the five winners of the 2007 OSCON awards.
Aaron really deserves it for all his work with Mozilla a11y, W3C and
developing general OSS a11y. His award title is "Best Accessibility
Architect" which is great PR for OATS too.

"For the past two years the Google-O'Reilly Open Source Awards have
recognized individuals for dedication, innovation, leadership and
outstanding contribution to open source."
