In addition to the task force, the Silver Community Group provides a venue to participate in this work without joining the Accessibility Working Group. This is intended for people who do not represent W3C Member organizations and people who wish to be involved but cannot make the full time commitment expected of Task Force participants.

Administrative Information

The Silver TF is a Task Force of the Accessible Guidelines Working Group (AG WG).
