Subject:	[EXTERNAL] 48 hour Call for Consensus (CfC): Update to the ACT
            Rules process



Hi everyone!

This is a 48 hour Call for Consensus (CfC) for updating the ACT Rules
process to resolve:
      Issue 458 - Implementations with mostly "cantTell" results (
      https://github.com/w3c/wcag-act/issues/458)
      Issue 466 - Faster turnover in rule feedback (
      https://github.com/w3c/wcag-act/issues/466)

The proposed changes were surveyed and then discussed at our 30 July ACT TF
meeting. Additional editorial changes were made per comments received and
our discussion.

1. Pull request 471 - Add implementation requirements to process:
https://github.com/w3c/wcag-act/pull/472
Read the Implementations section of the process with changes incorporated:
https://github.com/w3c/wcag-act/blob/7f7cbd09d03c3832910f4d95d342efc04875bf8e/wcag-ruleset-review-process.md#implementations


2. Pull request 472 - Improve throughput / transparency on rule design
process: https://github.com/w3c/wcag-act/pull/471
Read the "Surveying" section of the process with the changes incorporated:
https://github.com/w3c/wcag-act/blob/7f7cbd09d03c3832910f4d95d342efc04875bf8e/wcag-ruleset-review-process.md#implementations


This CfC is now open for objection, comment, as well as statements of
support via email. Silence will be interpreted as support, though messages
of support are certainly welcome.

If you object to this proposed action, or have comments concerning this
CfC, please respond by replying on list to this message no later than 10:00
AM Boston Time, Thursday 6 August.

Best regards,

Mary Jo
