RE: Planning to close Voice Interaction Community Group due to inactivity unless we hear from you

Thank you for this notification. In fact, the group is quite active, but we shifted our mailing list temporarily to the Program
Committee list to prepare for the very successful W3C Smart Voice Agents Workshop, which has just concluded (February 25-27). You
will find the final report here https://www.w3.org/news/2026/w3c-workshop-report-smart-voice-agents/. Having finished the workshop,
we will be returning to work on our specifications for personal assistant architecture
https://w3c.github.io/voiceinteraction/voice%20interaction%20drafts/paArchitecture/paArchitecture-1-3.htm and Intelligent Personal
Assistant Interfaces (https://w3c.github.io/voiceinteraction/voice%20interaction%20drafts/paInterfaces/paInterfaces.htm). We expect
that these specifications will be available for consideration as standards in the not-too-far future, informed by the findings from
our workshop. 
Our activities will now move back to our home page, https://www.w3.org/community/voiceinteraction/, and thank you for reminding us
to update the home page with the information about the workshop.

Subject: Planning to close Voice Interaction Community Group due to inactivity unless we hear from you

Dear participants in the

   Voice Interaction Community Group
   https://www.w3.org/community/voiceinteraction/

Your Community Group appears to have become inactive (per [1]).

If your group is in fact active, we ask that you respond to this email with answers to these two questions:

* Is your group publishing any Specifications?
* What is the group's expectation about future standardization of
  those Specifications at W3C or at some other standards body?

We also recommend the following:

* Let us know where the activity is going on so that we can update our
  data and improve our tools.

* Update your group home page with news of your activities.  Chairs
  can use the group Wordpress instance of the group to post news; let
  us know if you have any questions.

If you would like us to keep the group open because you expect it to become active in the near future or for other compelling
reasons, just let us know.

If you would like to schedule a call to discuss the current status of your group, your plans, and any obstacles to success, or you
simply have questions about the CG program, please let us know.

If would like us to close the group, or if we do not hear from you in the next 30 days, we will plan to close the group.

Thank you,

CG/BG System
