== Summary == 1. Shawn gave a review of the TPAC content meetings. There isn't consensus of what process we should be following or an editorial pattern for functional needs. Charles pointed out that we lack a editorial pattern that identifies the need. What we have identifies the groups that benefit. There are many different documents describing functional needs and we need to look at them all and pick the parts that fit us the best. Jeanne will look for missing documents and ensure they are all listed on the wiki main page under Content <https://www.w3.org/WAI/GL/task-forces/silver/wiki/Main_Page#Silver_Content>. Jeanne is making a list of unresolved issues from TPAC so they can be scheduled. We also need to work on the project plan and prioritize what needs to be done before AGWG completes WCAG 2.2 and will start moving their focus to Silver. 2. Jeanne brought Shawn and the group up-to-date on the charter timeline mistake. In short, Silver originally scheduled the First Public Working Draft (FPWD) for Silver for November 2019. In May/June, the AGWG chairs reviewed the Silver timeline and moved the date to January. The charter went out with the old date, and no one caught it. Now we need to meet that date, as the charter cannot be changed at this point. This is not a disaster, as the work we are doing is close to being ready for FPWD. At TPAC, Andrew linked the original FPWD of WCAG 2.0, which had large sections -- including conformance -- that had not even been started. The goal of a FPWD is to give the idea and flavor of Silver, not have a lot of polished details. 3. The timeline to get the FPWD done by November: Assuming we publish the last week of November, we need AGWG to approve the draft by mid-November. Silver needs to finish the draft by end of October to give to AGWG. Silver needs to see the (incomplete) work from the individual groups working on content at next week's meeting on Tuesday, October 8. 4. Status on the official name for Silver: Jeanne got an update from Michael Cooper, our W3C Staff Contact. The W3C WAI staff have discussed the names proposed and did not find an acceptable name for a variety of reasons. Jeanne has asked WAI staff to reform those reasons into requirements for a name, such as: accurately describe the work, have a pronounceable acronym, have an acronym that is not an objectionable word in any human language, etc. Suggested that AGWG focus on the name, so we can focus on the content for November. Jeanne will ask the chairs. Issues/Tasks to be scheduled for discussion: 1. Merging all the functional needs spreadsheets and processes into a process we can use. Jeanne will locate the missing documents and update the wiki. The purpose is to have a consistent process that meets the Requirements and goals of Silver that can be used to migrate existing WCAG success criteria to Silver and to write new content. 2. Project plan: How to prepare for AGWG shifting focus to Silver work. What needs to be done in what priority? == Minutes == https://www.w3.org/2019/10/01-silver-minutes.html
