48-Hour Call for Consensus (CfC): FPWD of Revised CAPTCHA Note

Colleagues:

This is a Call for Consensus (CfC) to the Accessible Platform
Architectures (APA) Working Group on the publication of a First Public
Working Draft (FPWD) of an updated and revised "Inaccessibility of
CAPTCHA" document:

"https://rawgit.com/w3c/apa/1f5febb77be9c09906899174ae21e5ff7302e443/captcha/index.html

Please note the quick turnaround on this CfC. Comments are due by close
of business Boston time Wednesday. If you need more time, please advise.

A revision and update of our 2004 W3C Note has long been on our agenda.
Thanks to assistance from our Research Questions Task Force (RQTF), we
finally have a document we believe can shortly update our published
guidance on this topic. We are seeking wide review in the FPWD process.
We are also expecting at least one more draft publication seeking wide
review call before finalizing our updated document as a W3C Note.

Please review the document at the above URI. Please note that several
editorial tweaks are expected before publication as a FPWD, but no
substantive changes are contemplated.

*       ACTION TO TAKE

This CfC is now open for objection, comment, as well as statements of
support via email. Silence will be interpreted as support, though
messages of support are certainly welcome.

If you object to this proposed action, or have comments concerning this
proposal, please respond by replying on list to this message no later
than 5:00 PM close of business Boston Time, Tuesday 27 June.
