Adding Level AAA ‐ status table - w3c/wcag2ict GitHub Wiki

This page is to track progress of developing guidance for Level AAA criteria with links to in-progress Google docs, related issues, and surveys and assignees. Hopefully this will help us to move the project forward more quickly. Here is a list of all Level AAA tracking issues in GitHub. Note that a number of them do not have assigned owners. Please take one out of the list in the table below and add yourself as the person to develop the guidance and help move the work forward. Google docs have been started for each SC. When you're assigned, you'll be made an owner of that Google doc to develop the proposed guidance.
