The Working Group and Silver Taskforce has already approved, through previous CFC’s, publishing the following updates to the WCAG 3 draft:



  1.  WCAG 3 Explainer https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/w3c-wai-gl/2021JulSep/0171.html<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/w3c-wai-gl/2021JulSep/0171.html__;!!ACWV5N9M2RV99hQ!ZmyHz1Elx4kFKW47QofFw2i-f6Z2RN0MSIqtYBd4uwFzsr-M-ROf9LLiVks6MbYEYQ$>
  2.  User Generated Content https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/w3c-wai-gl/2021JulSep/0136.html<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/w3c-wai-gl/2021JulSep/0136.html__;!!ACWV5N9M2RV99hQ!ZmyHz1Elx4kFKW47QofFw2i-f6Z2RN0MSIqtYBd4uwFzsr-M-ROf9LLiVksujLIfbg$>

This review provides an opportunity to view all the proposed updates in context. Please note that we are still finalizing the reformatting of the methods to match the new ACT-Silver structure and these informative changes are editorial only.
