Re: Stakeholders committee ready for the "authorized French WCAG 2.0 translation"

Dear Pierre

On behalf of the W3C and of the WAI team, I am happy to notify you, as the  
LTO, to proceed with the preparation of a Candidate Authorized Translation  
of WCAG 2.0 (http://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG20/) into French.

We are now at step 3 of the policy for Authorized W3C Translations  
(http://www.w3.org/2005/02/TranslationPolicy.html).

Best regards,
Coralie
