CSS Grid Layout Module Level 1 Working Draft Updated
23 January 2014 | Archive
http://www.w3.org/blog/news/archives/3604
The CSS Working Group has published an updated Working Draft of
"CSS Grid Layout Module Level 1." This CSS module defines a
two-dimensional grid-based layout system, optimized for user
interface design. In the grid layout model, the children of a
grid container can be positioned into arbitrary slots in a
flexible or fixed predefined layout grid. CSS is a language for
describing the rendering of structured documents (such as HTML
and XML) on screen, on paper, in speech, etc. Learn more about
the Style Activity.

21 January 2014 | Archive
http://www.w3.org/blog/news/archives/3602
The CSS Working Group published an updated Working Draft of
"CSS Fragmentation Module Level 3." This module describes the
fragmentation model that partitions a flow into pages, columns,
or regions. It builds on the Page model module and introduces
and defines the fragmentation model. It adds functionality for
pagination, breaking variable fragment size and orientation,
widows and orphans. Learn more about the Style Activity.

Workshops
* 2014-02-28 (28 FEB) – 2014-03-01 ( 1 MAR)
W3C/IAB workshop on Strengthening the Internet Against
Pervasive Monitoring (STRINT)
http://www.w3.org/2014/strint/
London, England
The Vancouver IETF plenary concluded that pervasive
monitoring represents an attack on the Internet. Pervasive
monitoring targets protocol data that we also need for
network manageability and security. This data is captured
and correlated with other data. There is an open problem as
to how to enhance protocols so as to maintain network
manageability and security but still limit data capture and
correlation.
The overall goal of the workshop is to steer IETF and W3C
work so as to be able to improve or "strengthen" the
Internet in the face of pervasive monitoring. A workshop
report in the form of an IAB RFC will be produced after the
event.
* 2014-03-05 ( 5 MAR) – 2014-03-06 ( 6 MAR)
Linking Geospatial Data
http://www.w3.org/2014/03/lgd/
London
Co-organized by the UK Government, Ordnance Survey, the OGC
and Google.
Many data-driven applications have geospatial information
at their core. Very often the common factor across multiple
data sets is the location data, and maps are crucial in
visualizing correlations between data sets that may
otherwise be hidden. How can geographic information best be
integrated with other data on the Web? How can we discover
that different facts in different data sets relate to the
same place, especially when 'place' can be expressed in
different ways and at different levels of granularity? It's
this desire to work with multiple data sets in different
formats about different topics and link those with the
powerful technologies used in geospatial information
systems that is behind the linking geospatial data
workshop.
* 2014-03-12 (12 MAR) – 2014-03-13 (13 MAR)
Fourth W3C Web and TV Workshop: Web and TV Convergence
https://www.w3.org/2013/10/tv-workshop/
Munich, Germany
Hosted by IRT
With HTML5 well on its way to standardization in 2014, and
a new effort on HTML 5.1 recently launched, it is time to
have fresh look at the current state of the art in order to
identify remaining roadblocks for the use of Web technology
in broadcasting and the TV industry. The goal of this
workshop is to assemble key players from TV and the Web
industry to discuss the important questions of Web and TV
convergence, and how standardization can help across the
globe.
* 2014-03-24 (24 MAR) – 2014-03-25 (25 MAR)
Workshop on Web Payments: How do you want to pay?
http://www.w3.org/2013/10/payments/
Paris, France
Hosted by Ingenico
This workshop seeks to make it easier to monetize open Web
applications, as an effective alternative to proprietary
native app ecosystems. In essence, we would like to improve
the end user experience and give users greater freedom in
how they pay, to reduce the burden on developers and
merchants, and to create a level playing field for
competing payment solutions providers large and small.
* 2014-05-07 ( 7 MAY) – 2014-05-08 ( 8 MAY)
Seventh MultilingualWeb Workshop: New Horizons for the
Multilingual Web
http://www.multilingualweb.eu/documents/2014-madrid-worksho
p/2014-madrid-cfp
Madrid, Spain
Hosted by UPM
As with previous MultilingualWeb events, this workshop will
bring together speakers and participants with an interest
in best practices and standards aimed at helping content
creators, localizers, tools developers, and others meet the
challenges of the multilingual Web. This workshop will
emphasize new technology developments that may lead to new
opportunities for the Multilingual Web. A unique
proposition of the workshop is that it brings together
speakers and provides opportunities for networking across a
wide range of communities to produce a holistic view of the
problems faced in developing and deploying multilingual
content and applications on the Web.
