Hi all –

I wanted to bring to your attentions that the TAG has been organizing a
one-day unconference developer-focused event to accompany its next f2f
meeting  in San Francisco. This event will take place on the 20th of
April at the San Francisco Marriott Marquis and is being sponsored /
hosted by O’Reilly’s Fluentconf. The event is free to attend and
attendees will also be invited to attend the “Ignite” evening talks set
up for FluentConf attendees.

The event is called the “Extensible Web Summit” – however the intention
is that the subject matter of the event goes beyond the “Extensible Web”
ideas. Roughly speaking, we will be covering topics of interest to the
TAG. The day will kick off with a few curated lightning talks but the
majority of the day will be organized unconference-style
(participant-led; agenda put together on the day of). This will be the
third event in this series (see https://extensiblewebsummit.org).

For more info and to register, visit our page on Lanyrd:

I especially encourage you to disseminate this information to your
developer teams working on web technology and web platforms, as the
point of the event is to bring together such developers (who are not
necessarily the same ones working directly in the standardization
process) to help inform the ongoing evolution of the web platform.

Disclaimer: this event is not an official w3c event nor does it have any
official standing. It is organized  by individuals on the TAG (including
myself) as part of our ongoing efforts to directly engage with the web
developer community.

Thanks,
Daniel Appelquist
co-chair, Technical Architecture Group
