Fwd: WCAG 2.0 Draft publication planned for December 2007

Dear WAI Interest Group Participants,

The WCAG Working Group plans to publish a second Last Call Working 
Draft of WCAG 2.0 in December 2007, along with updated Working Drafts 
of Techniques for WCAG 2.0, Understanding WCAG 2.0, and the WCAG 2.0 
Quick Reference.

For this second Last Call Working Draft please expect a review period 
of approximately six weeks, with an additional week to allow for 
end-of-year holidays. Additional information will be provided with 
the publication announcement in the next week or two.

Last Call Working Drafts and other stages in WCAG 2.0 development are 
described in How WAI Develops Accessibility Guidelines through the W3C Process:

Questions such as "What are the different WCAG 2.0 documents?", "When 
will WCAG 2.0 be done?" and "How is WCAG 2.0 different from WCAG 
1.0?" are answered in the WCAG 2 FAQ:
