Subject: WCAG 2.x backlog meeting this coming Friday: usual agenda (with links to top drafted issues/PRs)

I'm away on holiday until Thursday, so sending this very early this week...

Working through our usual board https://nam02.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fgithub.com%2Forgs%2Fw3c%2Fprojects%2F56&data=05%7C02%7Cadam.page%40hilton.com%7C99fd211049c646f8f2e708de9369d997%7C660292d2cfd54a3db7a7e8f7ee458a0a%7C0%7C0%7C639110280000359199%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJFbXB0eU1hcGkiOnRydWUsIlYiOiIwLjAuMDAwMCIsIlAiOiJXaW4zMiIsIkFOIjoiTWFpbCIsIldUIjoyfQ%3D%3D%7C0%7C%7C%7C&sdata=sJ6ec8QBz%2BuycBliAp81Yz%2FaESXIiywoAW36eb%2FQrZs%3D&reserved=0<https://github.com/orgs/w3c/projects/56>

* Review "For discussion" items

* Review "Drafted" items (see below) - either:
   * Move back to "In progress", with more work to do; or
   * Move to "Ready for approval", if there is general agreement the
issue is sufficiently resolved; or
   * Leave in "Drafted", if discussion was not concluded satisfactorily.

* Review if there are pressing "To do" items

* Time permitting, items of interest to participants, including open
discussions. For instance:
   * Check if people working on "In progress" items need help


Note: it would be good/helpful if folks could grab a few minutes before
the meeting to familiarise themselves with the items at the top of the
"Drafted" and "For discussion" columns, as having at least a passing
familiarity with the context (rather than looking at these "cold" for
the first time in the meeting) may help steer any discussion.

Specific issues/PRs we'll try to get to in the meeting:

* Remove jQuery from Techniques #4981 https://nam02.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fgithub.com%2Fw3c%2Fwcag%2Fpull%2F4981&data=05%7C02%7Cadam.page%40hilton.com%7C99fd211049c646f8f2e708de9369d997%7C660292d2cfd54a3db7a7e8f7ee458a0a%7C0%7C0%7C639110280000386086%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJFbXB0eU1hcGkiOnRydWUsIlYiOiIwLjAuMDAwMCIsIlAiOiJXaW4zMiIsIkFOIjoiTWFpbCIsIldUIjoyfQ%3D%3D%7C0%7C%7C%7C&sdata=y40pVTfOlV3PmVBI8Kf20sLISenrKOfWNjdTHvoyY7I%3D&reserved=0<https://github.com/w3c/wcag/pull/4981>
