Re: CfC: Approve draft charter for AC review

This CFC received 18 affirmative votes and one outstanding objection. The chairs feel that the objection has been considered and was partly addressed by a compromise in draft charter language. Therefore, it is agreed as a decision (https://www.w3.org/WAI/GL/decision-policy) of the WCAG Working Group to advance the draft charter for further review by W3M and the W3C AC, but we will record the objection along with the decision.

The decision is recorded at https://www.w3.org/WAI/GL/wiki/Decisions. The one outstanding objection (https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/w3c-wai-gl/2016OctDec/0167.html) is recorded via reference to this email.

CALL FOR CONSENSUS – ends Thursday October 13 at 1:00pm Boston time.

This is a CfC seeking WG approval to release the current draft charter for AC review.  The item was surveyed, discussed on the WG call, and approved (http://www.w3.org/2016/10/11-wai-wcag-minutes.html<http://www.w3.org/2016/08/23-wai-wcag-minutes.html#item03>). There was much discussion leading up to the call, and on the call, and the group felt that a consensus opinion was reached on key items.

Draft charter: http://www.w3.org/2016/09/draft-wcag-charter


If you have concerns about this proposed consensus position that have not been discussed already and feel that those concerns result in you “not being able to live with” this position, please let the group know before the CfC deadline.

Thanks,
