Automotive and Web Business Group created

W3C has launched the Automotive and Web Business Group:
  http://www.w3.org/community/autoweb/

--------------------------------------------------

The mission of the Automotive and Web Business Group is to influence the
Open Web Platform on the unique needs of the automotive industry, and to
help stakeholders within the automotive industry to build a good and
practical understanding on the standardization processes within the W3C.




The initial scope of this business group will be to determine what
vehicle data should be exposed through a Web API(s).  The goal or
deliverable will be to draft a specification and then hand it off to a
Working Group.  If the business group is successful in this initial
effort there are many other technical challenges such as reducing driver
distraction and improving safety that this group could address while
influencing the Open Web Platform for Automotive.

--------------------------------------------------
