-For all specifications, this Working Group will seek [horizontal
-review](https://www.w3.org/Guide/documentreview/#how_to_get_horizontal_review)
-for accessibility, internationalization, performance, privacy, and
-security with the relevant Working and Interest Groups, and with the
-[TAG](https://www.w3.org/2001/tag/). Invitation for review must
-be issued during each major standards-track document transition,
-including [FPWD](https://www.w3.org/Consortium/Process/#RecsWD).
-The Working Group is encouraged to engage collaboratively with the
-horizontal review groups throughout development of each specification.
-The Working Group is advised to seek a review at least 3 months before
-first entering
-[CR](https://www.w3.org/Consortium/Process/#RecsCR) and is
-encouraged to proactively notify the horizontal review groups when major
-changes occur in a specification following a review. Additionally, the
-technologies this Working Group will be considering will be relevant for
-other standards development organizations such that the group is
-encouraged to coordinate with the appropriate groups at the WHATWG,
-Ecma, and IETF as needed.

-The WG will coordinate with the Federated Identity Community Group
-(FedIDCG) to solicit feedback from a wider community of interest. At any
-time, but always when a specification is undergoing a [state
