Dear Audrey, After evaluating your submission of intent, including the list of stakeholders, on behalf of W3C, I am pleased to inform you that, as the LTO, you may now proceed with preparing a Candidate Authorized Translation (CAT) of WCAG 2.2 – 12 December 2024 (https://www.w3.org/TR/2024/REC-WCAG22-20241212/) into French. We are entering step 3 of the policy for Authorized W3C Translations (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). Rémi Bétin (remi@w3.org), Senior Project Manager of the Web Accessibility Initiative (WAI) at W3C and a native French speaker, will provide assessment and guidance from the WAI perspective.
