Work Scope & Timeline


Our Work

In Scope

  • Further development and understanding of conformance challenges
  • Develop a set of key principles (with use cases) that address the identified conformance challenges. These principles should describe success for WCAG 3.
  • Explore potential solutions to address identified challenges, including how best to use various WAI resources (such as ACT, WCAG-EM, and Education & Outreach resources)
  • Propose candidate solutions to Silver (and AGWG if Silver agrees)
  • To the extent that they are part of a solution to a challenge, details of testing and scoring

Out of Scope

  • Writing new guidelines, methods, outcomes, user needs, or functional needs
  • Revising WCAG-EM

Working Timeline

  • Within February: Subgroup agreement on defining principles and use cases
  • Within March: Report on the extent to which the use cases are already addressed by WCAG 3, delivered to Silver
  • Within April: Initial proposals for use cases not addressed by WCAG 3, delivered to Silver & AGWG.
  • Within May: Further/updated proposals for use cases not addressed by WCAG 3
