[LTO approved - step 2 to 3] Re: Request approval for Authorized Translation of WCAG2.1 to Dutch

Dear Eric,

On behalf of the W3C and of the WAI team, I am happy to notify you, in 
your quality of LTO, to proceed with the preparation of a Candidate 
Authorized Translation of WCAG 2.1 (<https://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG21/>) 
into Dutch.

We are entering step 3 of the policy for Authorized W3C Translations, in 
which the LTO develops a "Candidate Authorized Translation (CAT)" of the 
entire document (<https://www.w3.org/2005/02/TranslationPolicy.html>). 
When complete, the LTO announces the CAT and its URI on the translators' 
mailing list (<w3c-translators@w3.org>).

Best regards,
Xueyuan Jia, W3C Marketing & Communications
