RE: Assigning issues

Hi Andrew,

Perhaps I missed the explanation on Tuesday’s call, but could you clarify:

1.       There are currently 150+ open issues, but you’re referring only to those that you assigned the “AGWG work item” label… Is there any significance to that label in priority or anything else?  How did we arrive at that subset?

2.       Since most of this subset has been opened by working group members, why would we not just have the discussion directly on GitHub?  I thought that was the takeaway from Tuesday, no?

Thanks.

Steve

AGWG’ers,
As mentioned on the call Tuesday, we have a growing list of issues where we need assistance from WG members. Please look at the list on GitHub and assign one or two to yourself:
https://github.com/w3c/wcag21/issues?q=is%3Aopen+is%3Aissue+label%3A%22AGWG+Work+item%22


Items that are not assigned by Tuesday will be assigned on or around the call (that is, we may assign items to you even if you can’t attend the call).

For each issue, please identify:

  1.  Should this issue be closed?
  2.  What would be an appropriate response to the issue to share with the commenter?
  3.  Are there discussion points that the WG needs to address in order to finalize a response?
When you feel that there are answers to these, please do not enter a response into the issue itself, send the information to the list and reference the issue # in that response.

Thanks,
AWK
