-### Mailing Lists
+Joining the APG Task Force enables you to participate fully in the development of the work and influence the deliverables. You and your organization will also be listed as contributors, where appropriate.
 
-The APG Task Force uses the public-aria-practices@w3.org mailing list ([mailing list archives](http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-aria-practices/)) for email discussion. Participants are automatically added to the mailing list when they become a participant of the Task Force.
+Being a participant involves commitment to support the work of the task force in the following ways:

+* Engage actively in the work using the task force’s communication channels.
+* Keep up with weekly tasks and the progress of the work — for example, via the minutes of past meetings, mailing list discussions, and GitHub issue comments.
+* Give your input promptly, when it’s needed.
