Re: CFC - Changing Accessible Name in Change of Content

AGWG’ers,

As we have received substantially positive feedback leading up to this CfC and no responses indicating that group members could not live this this decision, this CfC is agreed on as a consensus opinion of the working group.

This decision will be recorded at https://www.w3.org/WAI/GL/wiki/Decisions<https://na01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2FWAI%2FGL%2Fwiki%2FDecisions&data=02%7C01%7C%7C1ab6006ec2be48e88f9008d4a210961e%7Cfa7b1b5a7b34438794aed2c178decee1%7C0%7C0%7C636311639507586899&sdata=IafGoKjeQf7zBqxVj8m380hh8%2BWgU1VfPa2tZjq0Bx8%3D&reserved=0>

Call For Consensus — ends Tuesday October 3rd at 10:30am Boston time.

The Working Group has discussed the issue of syncing the concept of “accessible name” in the Change of Content SC with the “name” concept used in WCAG 2.0’s 4.1.2 (Name, Role, Value). https://github.com/w3c/wcag21/issues/371<https://na01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fgithub.com%2Fw3c%2Fwcag21%2Fissues%2F371&data=02%7C01%7C%7Cba8dee7d827e43059c5a08d507443511%7Cfa7b1b5a7b34438794aed2c178decee1%7C0%7C0%7C636422911881896834&sdata=dTHEslu1n4HM7%2B1670lHaa7I4BNg71%2Bu6dP0sy%2FbVxY%3D&reserved=0>
