Dear WAI Interest Group, WCAG 2.2 is now updated to a 'Candidate Recommendation': Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2 https://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG22/ We plan to publish the finalized WCAG 2.2 in December 2022. For a list of changes in WCAG 2.2, see: What's New in WCAG 2.2 Draft https://www.w3.org/WAI/standards-guidelines/wcag/new-in-22/ Please bookmark that page and point others to it for the latest information on WCAG 2.2. We will update it with official information once we reach consensus. Candidate Recommendation: The main purpose of Candidate Recommendation is to ensure that WCAG 2.2 can be implemented. It is stable at this stage; however, it could change based on implementation experience. More about Candidate Recommendation and the process for completing WCAG 2.2 is in: How WAI Develops Accessibility Standards through the W3C Process https://www.w3.org/WAI/standards-guidelines/w3c-process/ Implementations and Comments: *4 October 2022* is the deadline for implementations and comments. We welcome examples of the new WCAG 2.2 success criteria implemented in websites and web apps. For more information on submitting implementations and comments, see What's New in WCAG 2.2 Draft <https://www.w3.org/WAI/standards-guidelines/wcag/new-in-22/> Here's a tweet you can use to share the news: https://twitter.com/w3c_wai/status/1567144606462087168 To get updates on WCAG 2.2 development, see: Get WAI News https://www.w3.org/WAI/news/subscribe/ Regards, Rachael Montgomery, Accessibility Guidelines Working Group (AG WG) Co-Chair Alastair Campbell, Accessibility Guidelines Working Group (AG WG) Co-Chair Chuck Adams, Accessibility Guidelines Working Group (AG WG) Co-Chair Michael Cooper, W3C Staff Contact for AG WG Shawn Lawton Henry, W3C Accessibility Education and Outreach Coordinator -- <http://www.w3.org/People/Shawn/>
