meeting on trust and permissions in web apps

This is to announce a W3C meeting on trust and permissions in web apps 
that will be held in Paris on 2-3 September 2014, hosted by Gemalto.

The Open Web Platform is based upon open standards and is supported on 
billions of devices. It is the only vendor neutral platform that spans 
such a wide range of devices (e.g. desktop, smart phones, tablets, TVs 
and cars). For developers seeking to reach a wide range of devices and 
operating systems, the Web is the obvious choice. There is growing 
interest in being able to access richer capabilities requiring elevated 
permissions. This two day meeting will review the limitations of 
existing standards, and discuss insights gained from experience with 
native app platforms, hybrid and proprietary web platforms. What is 
needed to arrive at a consensus for a cross vendor solution?

The meeting venue is restricted in space, so we are limiting attendance 
to one person per organization. Priority will be given to companies that 
are actively implementing extensions to the Open Web Platform, and 
interested in participating in developing standards for handling trust 
and permissions for Web applications.
