ACT TF: Note actions to take and cancellation of Monday 18 September meeting

Hello everyone!

The ACT TF meeting for Monday 18 September is cancelled.  Wilco and Shadi
are traveling and there is no new content to review at this time.

However, there is still work to do so in lieu of a meeting I have an
assignment for the group and we'll discuss your findings in the next call
on 25 September:

   If your organization develops test rules, look into how easily the rules
   you have can be implemented/mapped into the ACT Rules Format we've got
   in our spec (
   https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.w3.org_TR_act-2Drules-2Dformat_&d=DwICaQ&c=jf_iaSHvJObTbx-siA1ZOg&r=O4GqIExuqcdLwnUGEjvgSq08AYAj0SMVYacBFPfUo5Y&m=GtZjKZ8g3oPr0kybjbfOjwQJ5T7l4ydayGvF7EXBdi0&s=cM390yf7fmmBF8TAS4cZPCSd5-pELS8eLpHDIkfk95I&e=
   ).  We're thinking it might be best to test the Rules Format and learn
   by doing to understand better what details should be documented in the
   ACT Review Process(
   https://www.w3.org/WAI/GL/task-forces/conformance-testing/wiki/ACT_Review_Process
   )

   Or if you don't have your own rules to look at, look at rules that are
   in the wcag-act repository and see how well they are utilizing the ACT
   Rules Format spec.


Another important topic: TPAC 2017
   I wanted to send out a reminder for those of you who are attending, or
   considering attending the ACT TF Face-to-Face meeting at TPAC in San
   Francisco, CA USA. If you are planning to attend the meeting but have
   not yet registered or made flight and lodging arrangements, I want to
   press on you the importance of doing so quickly.

   *TPAC Registration* Registration is currently $117/day for attending
   (includes food, wifi, meeting space, etc.) This will increase to
   $175/day after October 6th. TPAC Registration information [1].
