I personally agree with Shadis suggestion of aligning the CG with the ACT TF work.

Note that we will need to formally close this group and start another
with the new name. This is not necessarily a bad thing, as we can now
probably better describe the purpose and processes of the new group.
I'd also like to throw in the mix: "Accessibility Conformance Testing
(ACT) Community Group", to match the name of the related W3C spec and
effort. After all, I think we now consider this will be a longer-term
group that will pre-standardize (incubate) ACT Rules for AGWG.
Best,
Shadi
