Re: CFC - Updated Response to issues 386, 659, and 660, 669, and 688 on Character Key Shortcuts

AGWG’ers,

As we have received substantially positive feedback leading up to this CfC and and one objection (https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/w3c-wai-gl/2018JanMar/0921.html), 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>.

The changes to the SC are implemented in this pull request: https://github.com/w3c/wcag21/pull/732

The changed SC can be viewed here: http://rawgit.com/w3c/wcag21/character_changes/guidelines/index.html#character-key-shortcuts


Since the original CFC, this has been updated to remove the mention of the shift key, and to remove the mention of space and enter (see specific commit here: https://github.com/w3c/wcag21/pull/732/commits/4f7d83ea030329529ede8f0f577abf51a18745a7)

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 decision, please let the group know before the CfC deadline.

Thanks,
AWK
