RWW Community Group General Scope & Book Keeping

Hi All

As co-chair of this group, every so often, I send out a post asking if the
group is everything the members want it to be.  If we can be doing more of
some things, or less of other things.

Firstly, for everyone new that has joined, welcome!

The group is based on like minded individuals using web standards to read
and write.  We are currently one of the top 10 biggest Community groups at
the W3C.  We dont currently have a charter, but the current *scope*,
written about a year ago, of our work is outlined here:

Let us know if there's anything we can add or remove, or if items are out
of date.  I will be happy to update this page based on feedback.  I think
the work on ACLs and with LDP will get to more advanced stages this year.

I've been doing a "Monthly Open Thread" for a couple of years, the idea was
that people post there news, but it's sort of turned more into a "status
update", so I may change the name as appropriate.  I'd like to try sending
this out quarterly, rather than monthly, as it may be easier to aggregate
good content.  However, if activity picks I'll revert back to monthly.

For those interested in translating existing apps to the read write web,
I've started a group "Webize Everything" [1]

Lastly, I'd like to congratulation our co-chair Andrei in his new position
working at MIT, in Tim Berners-Lee's Team, in Boston.

Please dont hesitate to contact Andrei or myself, on list or privately if
there's anything you'd like to ask, or feel that we could be doing.

Looking forward to working with you all, and a productive next year!

Best
Melvin
