Issues reported

Policy page: list of issues in GitHub

Policy update submission page:

1. Need in form format so user fills in and submits form filled with information.
2. Determine fields required vs. optional and make proposal.

Help needed

• Need someone to discuss technical possibilities. Like can we make this page similar to the WCAG 2.0 one with table of contents on left, and filtering capabilities? Or do we need to keep this simpler to minimize coding effort (e.g. sortable table for summary with accordion structure containing details per country)?
  • Eric and Shawn are the ones to discuss this with. :-) {Shawn}
• I don’t see any page/space in GitHub for the the submission of an update to the policy page. Should there be a page added there for me to start with, or am I starting from scratch on this one?
  • We don't have that yet. {Shawn}
