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 missing definition for "proper name" #5098 
https://github.com/w3c/wcag/pull/5098 (yes, sorry, another "errata" 
thing that's sure to cause consternation for some folks)
* Add note about logo/logotypes contrast to 1.4.3, 1.4.6, and 1.4.11 
understanding #4402 https://github.com/w3c/wcag/pull/4402 (likely to 
cause a stir?)
* Fix typos and clarify “starts automatically” in 2.2.2 Pause, Stop, 
Hide Understanding #4822 https://github.com/w3c/wcag/pull/4822
* Focus obscured and semi-transparent/blurred overlays - reword, and DO 
make it fail at AAA #4824 https://github.com/w3c/wcag/pull/4824
* Remove the swipe example from G219, tweak wording of example single 
pointer non-drag gestures #5060 https://github.com/w3c/wcag/pull/5060
* Tweak PDF2 intent #5069 https://github.com/w3c/wcag/pull/5069 (one for 
Duff to weigh in)
* Add C40 (two-color focus) as sufficient for 1.4.11 Non-text contrast 
#5090 https://github.com/w3c/wcag/pull/5090




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.
