Hi, folks, sorry for the short notice, but there will be an important
debate about how to move forward with WCAG 3. I'm sharing some quick
background, how to show your support online, and how to join today's AG
meeting.
There will be more discussions about this in future weeks, but it would be
helpful if you could show your support today, thanks.
*Quick background*
- Two of the options that will be discussed today keep us moving on a
path to overhaul WCAG 3 so it can meet the needs of more users, including
people with disabilities that impact cognitive accessibility.
- The third option is to make small, incremental changes to WCAG 2.2,
which will make it harder to make changes that are important to COGA.
- Github discussion with details:

meeting):
