I am only a newb here so apologies for weighing in, but as someone who has tripped over issues in 2.0/2.1 docs that basically confused me (micro example; incorrect use of BRs in some example code), this suggestion sounds like a disproportionately valuable one. -Alan Bristow Elections Canada alan.bristow@elections.ca ________________________________________ From: Patrick H.

This message was sent from an external sender. Please exercise caution and do not click links or open attachments unless you recognize the sender and know the content is safe. I've asked separately before, but opening this up to the wider group: there are currently 437 issues https://github.com/w3c/wcag/issues and 106 pull requests https://github.com/w3c/wcag/pulls against WCAG, and the numbers keep constantly going up (and yes, in a rather self-centered view...there are 19 PRs by me that I keep a close eye on, but that don't seem to be going anywhere https://github.com/w3c/wcag/pulls/patrickhlauke - many of which I'd say are fairly non-controversial, have been discussed, or just make a small editorial/non-substantive correction/tweak, ranging back to 2019). I understand that the focus is currently on 2.2 and/or 3.0, but particularly as most of the issues/PRs are about 2.1 (and heck, even 2.0) aspects that will be inherited by 2.2 anyway, I personally see value in looking at them at this juncture rather than carrying over potentially incorrect/confusing/incomplete/outright wrong things from 2.1/2.0. Is it worth considering doing a triage day/week to try and get these numbers down? A single concerted push to just try and get at least some of these resolved/merged/closed? P -- Patrick H.
