WCAG 2.2 status update

Hi everyone,

A quick update on the status of the various SCs we have going:


  *   Focus visible (enhanced): Initial approval of the SC text & documents, these have been made into a Pull Request (PR) on github: https://github.com/w3c/wcag/pull/936
That will go out for CFC soon.
  *   Accessible authentication: Updates made since previous survey, will be up for another review on the 10th Dec.
https://www.w3.org/2002/09/wbs/35422/accessible-auth/
  *   Essential controls: Some concerns about how to define the visual aspects, which Rachael, Bruce and MichaelG are working on, if they are happy with that we can re-review. There is also a somewhat separate option to add techniques for personalisation once that spec reaches recommendation.
https://www.w3.org/2002/09/wbs/35422/target-spacing/
  *   Touch target spacing: Worry that it could in some (key) scenarios encourage people to shrink targets and add spacing, rather than increase the spacing per-se. Also some wording suggestions made, summary under the 'discussion' heading:
