Re: WCAG 2.x issues task force

Hey Alastair,
> The TF will be responsible for updating WCAG 2.x information, primarily
the informative documents (understanding and technique documents). Things
like errata may be worked on, but will require approval from the whole
group.

Can you clarify this statement? Does this mean you're planning not to share
updated to informative documents with the working group for review anymore?
Is that a decision that was already made, or will the group have a vote on
it? Also, would this also be true for other task forces with informative
documents like ACT? I recall that we surveyed a similar proposal a few
months back, and that the group wasn't in support of that.
