Ongoing projects

<Helen> https://github.com/orgs/act-rules/projects/2/views/1

Dan: Label in name, I think it's finished but unsure how to get it merged

Helen: ask a chair, just email me

Godwin: Updates to ARIA 1.3 breakdown and questions about glossary

Helen: I'm going to open my work on reflow tests for critique

Godwin: I'll take a look this week

ARIA 1.3

Shunguo: New ARIA 1.3 change that presentation role is inherited

<Helen> https://github.com/act-rules/act-rules.github.io/issues/2400

<Helen> Giacomo: About children presentational roles, I’m working to make it clearer with this PR https://github.com/w3c/aria/pull/2237

Shunguo: Required ancestors not explicit about only being a direct parent
... aria-hidden=false now explicitly does not have an effect
... How do we do this?

Helen: Last time we broke it down, it was easier to review

Godwin: Given this is still in a draft, should we start working on it now?

Helen: We'll ask Wilco
... Use the WAI_ARIA 1.3 label

Rune: Who would I ask to publish a report now that Jean-Yves is gone

Helen: Ask Wilco

Kathy: Looking at issue 2400, we've been treating editors draft as living standard. I *think* Wilco had intended that we start
