Summary

   -

   Discussed How AG’s April 2024 list of WCAG 3 outcomes affects COGA
   <https://docs.google.com/document/d/12EFn13Ey7ZQ2huEjqd65FwjMuIxv9ZSW8li8Xh5po80/edit#heading=h.cxldapdmf6ao>
   -

   Double-negatives outcome
   -

      Chuck will ask AG chairs if Clear Language's “Avoid using double
      negatives to express a positive” outcome was left off AG’s list of
      WCAG 3 outcomes
      <https://docs.google.com/document/d/1XA5X9f9G5vmKJ7BiC7GCf8nWaCjnKGcSYrFd9ImWxc8/edit?pli=1>
      intentionally or unintentionally.
      -

      Getting this input from AG will help Clear Language determine next
      steps.
      -

   Multi-step process outcome
   -

      Julie sent COGA members an email after the meeting with two Github
      requests:
      -

      👎 Thumbs-down AG's proposal to remove the "Multi-step process"
      <https://github.com/w3c/wcag3/discussions/60#discussioncomment-9131447>
      outcome
      -

      👎 Thumbs-up Julie's comment in Github
      <https://github.com/w3c/wcag3/discussions/60#discussioncomment-9159610>
      <https://github.com/w3c/wcag3/discussions/60#discussioncomment-9159610>explaining
      why the “Multi-step process” outcome is broader than/not a
duplicate of the
      “Current location” outcome
      -

   “Risks” outcome
   -

      Julie added a suggestion to AG’s list of WCAG 3 outcomes
      <https://docs.google.com/document/d/1XA5X9f9G5vmKJ7BiC7GCf8nWaCjnKGcSYrFd9ImWxc8/edit?pli=1>
      to change “Risk” to “Risk statements” to make clear why it’s in the “Text
      and wording” section.
      -

      This suggestion is relatively minor wordsmithing, so I added it as a
      margin comment in AG's google doc rather than a Github comment.
