That's fantastic news! I recently made a renewed pitch to IPTC, the news technology organization, when I saw a Slack post that Brendan Quinn, the IPTC Managing Director, put out to their membership about LPF and pub-manifest, linking to those specs and citing the Publishing WG and Laurent specifically. (Laurent used to be an IPTC member and he knows them well.) I pointed out that some of their members (New York Times, BBC, Agence France-Presse, Bloomberg, Thomson-Reuters, you name it--but not the Post, and they've always wanted the Post to join IPTC!) might want to get involved in the W3C since those things may be really relevant to them. I will post about the Post! (I'm still a member of IPTC, though not as active as I used to be.)--Bill On Wed, Feb 12, 2020 at 5:02 PM Karen Myers <karen@w3.org> wrote: > Hi All, > > A quick note to let you know that The Washington Post has joined W3C as > new members and one of their interests is Publishing.
