The Worldwide Web Consortium (W3C) is sending this survey to ask for [organization] input to help prioritize W3C test development. The W3C has started an unprecedented effort to greatly increase the test coverage of W3C tests[1][2]. The W3C understands that other organizations are referencing HTML5 and other W3C specifications. As today, all the tests and test harnesses will be available for use by other organizations at no cost. In addition, the tests will also be reorganized to make usage by outside organizations easier.

Please replay to this e-mail with your answers in the enclosed table. You may include your answers in the HTML table or scan the table as an enclosure. Just use whatever is most convenient.

Please use the following values under the "Reference" column:

  *   P = The indicated specification is already referenced in one of your published specifications.
  *   F = The indicated specification will be referenced in one of your future published specifications.
  *   N (or blank) = You have no official plans to reference the indicated specification.

Please use the following values under the "Testing" column:

  *   M = Testing of the indicated specification is mandatory.
  *   O = Testing of the indicated specification is optional.
  *   N (or blank) = There will be no testing of this specification.

Under the "Date Needed" column, please enter an estimated date when the test would be needed (e.g. "Now" or "Q1 2014").

Feel free to also contact me concerning any additional issues, such as liaison relationships, participation in the W3C testing activity, or information on any other W3C efforts.

Thanks,
[W3C Staff Member] (probably Giuseppe)
