The Call for Participation in the newly re-chartered XML Core WG is now open. Please have your AC rep following the instructions for (re-)joining the WG. [Though it would be nice to get this done as soon as practical, no one will be barred from participation for a couple weeks at least. Plan to dial into this week's telcon regardless.] paul -----Original Message----- From: chairs-request@w3.org On Behalf Of Susan Lesch Sent: Monday, 04 April, 2005 10:34 To: w3c-ac-members@w3.org Cc: Philippe Le Hegaret; Liam Quin; ht@w3.org; chairs@w3.org Subject: XML Core Working Group Charter Approved, Join the XML Core Working Group (Call for Participation) Dear Advisory Committee Representative, Based on recent Advisory Committee review, I am pleased to announce approval for the new charter for XML Core Working Group. All reviewers supported the proposed charter [1], with one abstention. One comment was made about the importance of future developments around linking, in particular to address needs in the HTML Activity. We believe that such developments, if any, should be made in a separate group. The current discussion has been around a new Linking Working Group. The likelihood of chartering new work will depend on evidence of enough interest to make a viable Working Group a reasonable expectation. The Director approved the XML Core Working Group charter as proposed. The main changes to the Chater have the effect of bringing some new work into the scope of the Working Group: - maintenance of the XPointer(s), Canonical XML, and Exclusive XML Canonicalization specifications, - new W3C Recommendations for XLink 1.1 and Canonical XML 1.1. See below for information about joining the XML Core Working Group.
