  As you have seen, the new charter for the Accessibility
      Guidelines Working Group (AG WG) is now in effect. Note it is no
      longer named the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines Working
      Group (WCAG WG), so please try to update your mental label.Because the charter adds deliverables related to the W3C Patent
      Policy, all participants must rejoin the group to continue
      participating, in order to confirm their acceptance of the new
      patent requirements. There is a 45-day grace period starting
      today. After that, if you have not rejoined, the system will
      automatically remove you from the group. There's nothing I can do
      about that, so please be sure you rejoin before then. Some have already rejoined. You can check if you or your
      organization has rejoined via:https://www.w3.org/2004/01/pp-impl/35422/status== Member representatives ==

    If you represent a Member organization, your Advisory Committee
      representative must rejoin the group. When they do, all
      representatives of that organization are automatically rejoined.
      You can find your AC representative via:https://www.w3.org/Member/ACList (Member-only link)Please ask that person to use
      https://www.w3.org/2004/01/pp-impl/35422/join to rejoin, and refer
      them to
      https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Member/w3c-ac-members/2017JanMar/0015.html
      for context.Some organizations require internal review before rejoining, that
      in some cases could take weeks. Please initiate the process
        right away to give your organization time to complete its
      due diligence within the grace period.

    == Invited Experts and Team ==Invited Experts and Team can rejoin themselves. Simply complete
      the form at https://www.w3.org/2004/01/pp-impl/35422/join.Let me know off list if you have questions or need additional
      pointers.Michael
