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

Working through our usual board 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:

* Add figure caption numbering to techniques #5062 
https://github.com/w3c/wcag/pull/5062
* Add banner to top of techniques pages, tweak boxout content about 
techniques #5002 https://github.com/w3c/wcag/pull/5002
* Expand 2.1.2 understanding to make it more ... understandable #4726 
https://github.com/w3c/wcag/pull/4726
* Add extra note to pause-stop-hide understanding about multiple 
instances #4817 https://github.com/w3c/wcag/pull/4817
* Update normative wording of 4.1.3 and definition of "status message" 
#4952 https://github.com/w3c/wcag/pull/4952 (again)
* Update F3 "using CSS to include images that convey [...] information" 
#4814 https://github.com/w3c/wcag/pull/4814


Bonus
If you're after a fairly low risk activity, there's oodles of unanswered 
questions in 
https://github.com/w3c/wcag/discussions?discussions_q=is%3Aopen+is%3Aunanswered 
... many of those are very straightforward questions that can be 
answered fairly easily. Others may, during the course of the discussion, 
actually surface some problems in understanding/techniques that we can 
then tackle more directly with issues/PRs.

Of course, there's also tons of "To-do" items on our board...if you skim 
over them and see something that interests you and where you think you 
can make a good suggestion/PR...feel free to assign yourself and work on 
them.
