Avneesh Singh: Matt has provided the EPUB Accessibility 1.2 Understanding document.

Matt G.: It has not yet been published; it is currently in draft mode.
… feel free to review it.

Gregorio P.: Where should we review the current version?
… is there a deadline for feedback?

Matt G.: Review the link Avneesh provided. It is currently the latest version.
… the timeline is still open at the moment. Hopefully within the month, or by the time we move to CR.
… when EPUB 3.4 goes to REC, we should have this completed.

… this is not a CG document; it is for the WG.

Next steps for FXL accessibility documents.

Gregorio P.: I have opened some issues. Wendy is working on them and has proposed a PR. I also created a PR.

Any other business.
