Welcome to the Web NFC Community Group

Hi Kyoichiro,

[This mail may also be helpful to other participants who have joined recently.]

Welcome to the Web NFC Community Group!

This group will create a Near Field Communication API that is browser-friendly and adheres to the Web's security model. We believe that means the API will not expose full, low level NFC functionality, but rather a higher level subset that is safe for Web pages, protects user privacy, and does not annoy users with unnecessary or complex permission requests.

Below I share with you some pointers to get you started in this group.

>From the group's home page [1] you can find relevant resources, namely:

* Charter [2] defines the goals, scope, deliverables
* GitHub [3] is where the spec and supporting documents live:
  * Web NFC API [4]
  * Use Cases [5]
  * Security and Privacy Considerations [6]

For discussion and contributions the group uses:

* public-web-nfc@w3.org mailing list for discussion, archived at [7]
* GitHub issues [8] and pull requests for more direct contributions

If you haven't yet done so, please review the group's Charter and the Web NFC API spec.

Note that the group's mailing list [7] is automatically informed of significant activity in GitHub repo [3] and issues [8], i.e. you do not need to watch the GitHub repo to stay in sync. The GitHub notifications are prefixed with "[web-nfc]".

Please feel free to open issues, add comments, submit pull requests in GitHub, and discuss any ideas on this mailing list.

Please let me know if you have any questions. Looking forward to working with you.

Thanks,

-Anssi (CG chair)
