FYI: (Fwd) VOTE by 2023-03-06/07: Proposed Charter for the Web Fonts Working Group

Hello WG participants,

 

You may remember our discussions in the end of 2022 regarding the extension of the current WG charter (to replace the original charter that expired in September 2022). I’d like to ask all WG participants to remind your AC Reps that the new charter is currently up for AC approval vote until March 6.

 

The proposed charter does not introduce any changes in the list of deliverables produced by the WG, and, as a result, the current participants will not need to rejoin the WG if/when the new charter is approved.

 

Thank you,

Vlad
