[LTO approved - step 2 to 3] Re: Letter of Intent - Authorized Arabic Translation W3C

Dear Achraf,

Thank you and Mada Center for being willing to lead the translation, and 
recruiting the stakeholder organizations.

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 Arabic.

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
