Social Web Incubator Community Group created

The Social Web Incubator Community Group has been launched:
  http://www.w3.org/community/swicg/

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

The purpose of the Social Web Incubator Community Group is to continue
and extend the development of vocabularies, formats and protocols to
support the distributed / federated social web, as well as related
technologies (such as anti-abuse and anti-spam techniques suitable for
an open web). This group continues the work of the W3C Social Web
Working Group. As proposals gain support and become more stable and
mature, they will be considered for migration to a W3C Working Group
where they can be put on the Recommendation track with appropriate
status and Intellectual Property (IP) considerations.
