Subject: Call for Consensus (CfC): Publish Maturity Model Note

Colleagues:

This is a Call for Consensus (CfC) to the Accessible Platform Architectures (APA) Working Group proposing  publication of the Accessibility Maturity Model (AMM) as a Note.

*       The snapshot to review for this CfC is here:
        https://raw.githack.com/w3c/maturity-model/finial-note/index.html

*       The W3C Accessibility Maturity Model was developed by our Maturity Model Task Force over several years. It's FPWD was published in September 2022, and we published a second wide review draft in August 2025. MMTF's resolution requesting publication of the above snapshot version as an APA Note is recorded here:
        https://www.w3.org/2025/10/15-maturity-minutes.html#a128

*       The W3C Note track process is described here:
        https://www.w3.org/2023/Process-20231103/#note-track

Please note the above snapshot will look slightly different when published. The Status of this Document section will be updated, and the document will display with different colorization to reflect the document's published Note status.

As always with APA CfCs, editorial corrections, such as spelling or grammar,  will be made as needed without further notice.  Please do draw our attention to any editorial issues you find in this draft.


***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 23:59 (Midnight) Boston Time, Wednesday 22 October.

NOTE: This Call for Consensus is being conducted in accordance with the APA Decision Policy published at:
