What kind of charter is this? Check the relevant box / remove irrelevant branches. 

 - [x] Existing WG recharter 
 
Horizontal Reviews: apply the Github label "Horizontal review requested" to request reviews for accessibility (a11y), internationalization (i18n), privacy, security, and TAG. **Also add a "card" for this issue to the [Strategy Funnel](https://github.com/orgs/w3c/projects/97/views/2).**

## Substantive changes

None. The initial charter was aggressively optimistic. The WG hopes to get to CR Q4-2026 or Q1-2027, then switch to maintenance mode.
(this still needs to be clarified in the charter text, which is currently just the output of the charter assistant)

## Communities suggested for outreach

See https://w3c.github.io/lws-wg-charter/#coordination

## Known or potential areas of concern

None

## Where would charter proponents like to see issues raised? (this strategy funnel issue, a different github repo, email, ...)
