Planning for 2024: Goals of Individuals and of Working Group

[aleesteele]

Logging notes here with @PatriLoto and @LizHareDogs for the last meeting of the working group meeting in 2023 (feel free to edit this issue if I have missed anything - or if anything is not clear!).

During this call, we suggested using our monthly meetings for planning for the upcoming year, and the TTW coworking calls as a place for co-working synchronously (alongside working asynchronously during the month). This way, we can use TTW community infrastructure, and allow for more folks to join on projects according to their interests.

Planning for 2024 with Working Group:
We would appreciate if everyone is able to respond to these three questions as we prepare for 2024:

• Are you joining this working group as a member for the 2024 year?
• What does your time commitment look like for next year?
• What project are you most interested in getting involved with (see below for ongoing list)?
• What kind of support do you need to learn about accessibility practices and broader concepts in order to contribute to this working group?
