Dear Advisory Committee Representative,
[This announcement will be forwarded to W3C group chairs]

W3C is pleased to announce the recharter of the RDF Dataset 
Canonicalization and Hash (RCH) Working Group:
https://www.w3.org/2024/12/rch-wg-charter.html

The group is chartered through 2026-12-18.

The mission of the RDF Dataset Canonicalization and Hash Working Group 
is to maintain the specifications previously published by this group. 
That work included a standard to uniquely and deterministically 
calculate a hash of RDF Datasets for use cases such as Detecting changes 
in Datasets, and was based on an RDF Dataset Canonicalization algorithm.

Please use the following form to have your organization join the group. 
The form will also instruct you how to nominate participants:
https://www.w3.org/groups/wg/rch/join

Please consider diversity when proposing people to participate in W3C 
groups. Representation from a wider group of people, especially people 
from under-represented groups, is vital for creating web standards that 
meet the needs of the wider web community.

Current participants are not required to rejoin this group because the 
charter includes no new deliverables that require W3C Patent Policy 
licensing commitments.

The group chairs remain Phil Archer (GS1) and Markus Sabadello (Danube 
Tech). The Team Contact is Pierre-Antoine Champin, 
<pierre-antoine@w3.org>, for a total of 0.05FTE.

More information about the group can be found on the group home page:
https://www.w3.org/groups/wg/rch

This announcement follows section 5.7.2 of the W3C Process Document:
https://www.w3.org/2023/Process-20231103/#ACReviewAfter

and the Call for Participation follows section 4.4 of the W3C Process 
Document:

Thank you,

For Philippe le Hégaret, W3C Strategy and Project Lead,
