World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) kehittää yhteisiä ja yhteensopivia Webin pelisääntöjä ja teknologioita (spesifikaatioita, ohjeita, ohjelmistoja sekä työkaluja; ks. W3C Technical Reports and Publications [en]). Työn tavoitteena on ohjata Webin kehittymistä täyteen mittaansa tiedonvälityksen, kaupankäynnin, kommunikaation ja yhteisymmärryksen foorumina. (Ks. W3C pähkinänkuoressa.)

The Web Applications Working Group has published updates to five Working Drafts of specifications for APIs that enhance the open Web platform as a runtime environment for full-featured applications:
Note that the Web Storage and Web Database specifications were previously published as a single Working Draft, but have now been split out into separate Working Drafts. Learn more about the Rich Web Client Activity.
The Web Applications Working Group has published an updated Working Draft of Widgets 1.0: Packaging and Configuration, which standardizes a packaging format for software known as widgets. The specification relies on PKWare's Zip specification as the archive format, XML as a configuration document format, and provides a series of steps that widget runtimes follow when processing and verifying various aspects of a package. This updated Working Draft addresses issues reported during the first Candidate Recommendation phase (see the list of changes). Learn more about the Rich Web Client Activity.
The Web Applications Working Group has published a First Public Working Draft of DataCache API, which provides Web applications with a means to programatically add and remove resources to a “data cache”, which can then be statically served by user agents when a particular resource is requested. Learn more about the Rich Web Client Activity.
The Voice Browser Working Group has published an updated Working Draft of State Chart XML (SCXML): State Machine Notation for Control Abstraction. SCXML is a general-purpose event-based state machine language that may be used in a number of ways, including as a high-level dialog language controlling VoiceXML 3.0's encapsulated speech modules, or as a multimodal control language in the MultiModal Interaction framework. The main difference from the previous draft is the correction of various inconsistencies. A diff-marked version of this document is also available for comparison purposes. Learn more about the Voice Browser Activity.
The Multimodal Interaction Working Group has published the First Public Working Draft of Emotion Markup Language (EmotionML) 1.0. EmotionML provides representations of emotions and related states for technological applications. The aim of this draft is to strike a balance between practical applicability and scientific well-foundedness of emotion specification. The language is conceived as a "plug-in" language suitable for use in three different areas: (1) manual annotation of data, (2) automatic recognition of emotion-related states from user behavior and (3) generation of emotion-related system behavior. Learn more about the Multimodal Interaction Activity.
The Authoring Tool Accessibility Guidelines Working Group has published an updated Working Draft of Authoring Tool Accessibility Guidelines (ATAG) 2.0. ATAG defines how authoring tools should help Web developers produce Web content that is accessible and conforms to Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.0. ATAG also defines how to make authoring tools accessible so that people with disabilities can use them. Read the invitation to review the ATAG 2.0 Working Draft and about the Web Accessibility Initiative.
The Evaluation and Repair Tools Working Group has published a Last Call Working Draft of the Evaluation and Report Language (EARL) 1.0 Schema, updated Working Drafts of HTTP Vocabulary in RDF 1.0, Representing Content in RDF 1.0, Pointer Methods in RDF 1.0, Evaluation and Report Language (EARL) 1.0 Requirements, and a First Public Working Draft of the Evaluation and Report Language (EARL) 1.0 Guide. EARL is a machine-readable format for expressing test results. The primary motivation for developing EARL is to facilitate the processing of test results, such as those generated by Web accessibility evaluation tools, using a vendor-neutral and platform-independent format. Read the invitation to review the EARL 1.0 Last Call Working Draft and about the Web Accessibility Initiative (WAI).
