Hi, all,

Apologies for the delay. We had a problem with some updates that we wanted to publish before the announcement.

It would be really cool if you could retweet, or maybe share this announcement. If you have the opportunity, posting something yourself, maybe your thoughts on ACT, or if you're an implementor, your experience using or implementing ACT rules in your work.

If you want to read up on ACT, you can find some information on our about page: https://www.w3.org/WAI/standards-guidelines/act/rules/about/ <https://www.w3.org/WAI/standards-guidelines/act/rules/about/>. If you have any questions, please get in touch. And if there is anything you'd like me to review before you put it out I would be happy to help.
