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

The Director is pleased to announce the recharter of the Web Application 
Security Working Group.
https://www.w3.org/2022/06/webappsec-charter-2022.html

The group is chartered through 31 July 2023.

The mission of the Web Application Security Working Group is to develop 
mechanisms and best practices which improve the security of Web 
Applications.

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

If your organization is currently in the group, please note that you 
will need to have it re-join the group as the new charter adds new 
deliverables with licensing obligations under the W3C Patent Policy. 
This Call for Participation triggers the start of the 45 days grace 
period to re-join. See:
https://www.w3.org/2003/12/22-pp-faq.html#recharter

The group chairs are Dan Veditz (Mozilla) and Mike West (Google). The 
Team Contacts are Samuel Weiler (20% FTE), Mike Smith (10% FTE), and 
Wendy Seltzer (5% FTE), for a total of 35% FTE.

More information about the group can be found on the group home page:
