Introducing myself

[Michiel Bijl]

Hi :)

As per the newbie guide, I’d like to introduce myself. I am Michiel Bijl, 
co-editor of the ARIA Authoring Practices and Accessibility Engineer at TPG. 
The reason I joined the WA WG is to help out with improving it and its 
accessibility. I am sure I’ll learn a thing or two along the way as well.

Could you please adjust your attitude towards members of this working group? We 
are here to improve the web, not to insult people. 

Thank you.
