COGA/WCAG 3 coordination subgroup: October 10th meeting minutes and next steps

Hi, folks, sorry it's taken me a few days to send out the minutes. Here's
the recap, minutes, and next steps:

*New WCAG 3 subgroups to start in late October*

   - *4 topics:* Views, voice control text contrast, text-to-speech
   - *Deadline for participation survey:* Fill out this AG survey
   <https://www.w3.org/2002/09/wbs/35422/AGWGSubgroupParticipation_Oct_24/>
   by the end of this Wednesday, October 16th at 11:59pm Boston time
   - *Next steps:* COGA's WCAG 3 coordination subgroup will use our next
   meeting (October 24th) to go over which patterns from Making Content Usable
   should be shared with the new subgroups.

*Changes to WCAG 3 Requirements doc*

   - *Key details*
      - This document is a high-level description of what WCAG 3 should do
      in its next phase of development.
      - It does not have any specifics about conformance—which is good
      because there is so much that still needs to be worked out about
      conformance.
      - Julie created a google doc summarizing the changes
      <https://docs.google.com/document/d/1kbGic0DyH9iNGCYy5YOTU0wMogcET_mTHi0mGS2-HT4/edit?tab=t.0#heading=h.15sqqubaaw1q>
      in this version.
   - *Deadline for pull-request comments*
      - Alastair wants people to submit comments by end of day tomorrow,
      Tuesday, October 15th
   - *Next steps*
      - Please review the tracked-changes

      tracked changes.
      - Any concerns about this set of changes?

*Conformance models*

   - *Key detail:* After our subgroup meeting. Alastiar clarified that "The
   way the discussion was going at TPAC, it seemed like so many things could
   be included in a definition of ‘harm’ that it wouldn’t be a useful way of
   categorising requirements. However, if there is some way of prioritising
   requirements (from COGA or any other point of view), that would be useful.
   It’s a very difficult thing to ‘rank’.AG will continue the conformance
   discussion at tomorrow's meeting at 11 am ET
   - *Next steps: *Attend the AG meeting tomorrow at 11am ET and feel free
   to speakup during the conformance conversation.

*Next subgroup meeting:* Thursday, October 24th, at 11am ET
