Dear Advisory Committee Representative,
Chairs,

In February, we announced [1] the postponement of the previously announced Web & Machine Learning Workshop due to the international travel situation.

W3C is pleased to announce the workshop is now being organized as a virtual event, and is calling for participation in:

       W3C Workshop on Web & Machine Learning
       September 2020, Virtual Event
       https://www.w3.org/2020/06/machine-learning-workshop/

The primary goal of the workshop is to bring together providers of Machine Learning tools and frameworks with Web platform practitioners to enrich the Open Web Platform with better foundations for machine learning.

The event will be organized as a combination of pre-recorded talks (to be submitted in July 2020) followed by a series of live sessions in September, organized around 4 main themes:
* Opportunities and Challenges of Browser Based Machine Learning
* Web Platform Foundations for Machine Learning
* Machine Learning Experiences on the Web: A Developer's Perspective
* Machine Learning Experiences on the Web: A User's Perspective

Attendance is free for all invited participants and is open to the public, whether or not W3C members.
