Subject: CfC: Publish updated Techniques and Understanding documents
Importance: High
 
CALL FOR CONSENSUS – ends Monday February 29 at 9:30pm Boston time.
 
The Working Group reviewed the updated techniques and understanding documents (offered for public comment in January and which now include all changes made as a result of comments) and as a result of a unanimous survey ( <https://www.w3.org/2002/09/wbs/35422/Feb2016TandU/results> https://www.w3.org/2002/09/wbs/35422/Feb2016TandU/results) approving publication of these documents we are now calling for consensus on the publication. 
 
Techniques: Techniques for WCAG 2.0 <http://www.w3.org/WAI/GL/2016/WD-WCAG20-TECHS-20160223/> 
Understanding: Understanding WCAG 2.0 <http://www.w3.org/WAI/GL/2016/WD-UNDERSTANDING-WCAG20-20160223/> 
 
In addition to each document containing a link to a diff-marked version of the document, those familiar with GitHub and willing to wade through a little XML can see the specific changes in the source documents on GitHub <https://github.com/w3c/wcag/compare/Working-Branch-for-Q1-2016> .  Even if unfamiliar with GitHub, this may help identify the specific files where changes exist.
 
If you have concerns about publishing these documents that have not been discussed already and feel that those concerns result in you “not being able to live with” this decision, please let the group know before the CfC deadline.
 
Thanks,
AWK
