Dear Advisory Committee Representative,
[This announcement will be forwarded to W3C group chairs]

The Accessibility Guidelines Working Group charter [1] is hereby 
extended until 2026-08-28.

The mission of the Accessibility Guidelines Working Group is to develop 
specifications to support making implementations of web technologies 
accessible for people with disabilities, and to develop and maintain 
implementation support materials.

A draft new charter [2] is currently under development. The goal of this 
extension is to address some late comments regarding the charter and to 
cover the time needed for subsequent AC review of the charter. Comments 
on the draft charter can be raised on GitHub [3].

More information about the group can be found on its summary page [4], 
including information about group Chairs, Staff Contact and instructions 
for joining the group.

If you have any questions or need further information, please contact 
Kevin White <kevin@w3.org>, Staff Contact for the Accessibility 
Guidelines Working Group.

This extension follows section 4.6 of the W3C Process Document:

Thank you,

For Philippe le Hegaret, VP, Technical Strategy,
Kevin White, Accessibility Guidelines Working Group Staff Contact;
Xueyuan Jia, Manager, Member Communications
