• Comment on or propose solutions for open WCAG2ICT issues.

Become a participant in the task force

Being a participant involves commitment to support the work of the task force in the following ways:

• Engage actively in the work using the task force’s communication channels.
• Keep up with weekly tasks and the progress of the work — for example, via the minutes of past meetings, mailing list discussions, and GitHub issue comments.
• Give your input promptly, when it’s needed.

To become a participant in the WCAG2ICT Task Force, you must first be a member of the AG Working Group. See Instructions for joining the Accessibility Guidelines Working Group.
