World Wide Web Foundation Launches Operations and First Projects

   15 November 2009 | Archive

   http://www.w3.org/News/2009#entry-8654

   Speaking at the Internet Governance Forum in Sharm el Sheikh,
   Egypt, Tim Berners-Lee announced today that World Wide Web
   Foundation is open for business. World Wide Web Foundation was
   created with W3C's support in September 2008, and focuses on
   advancing the Web as a medium that empowers people to make
   positive social and economic change. Web Foundation's first two
   projects will help people to better leverage the Web to support
   agriculture in near-desert environments in Africa, and
   empowering youth in inner-city centers by teaching them how to
   create Web content. Such projects are consistent with W3C's own
   work to ensure that One Web is available to all, including work
   on mobile Web for social development, accessibility, and
   internationalization. W3C looks forward to collaborating with
   World Wide Web Foundation to further lower barriers to access
   and to promote the development of free and open Web standards.

Workshops

     * 17 NOV 2009
       Workshop on Access Control Application Scenarios
       http://www.w3.org/2009/policy-ws/cfp
       Luxembourg (City)
       W3C and Primelife Project
       This workshop brings together worldwide research and user
       communities to explore evolving application scenarios for
       access control technologies, such as XACML. Results form a
       number of recent European research projects in the grid,
       cloud computing, and privacy areas show overlapping use
       cases for these technologies that extend beyond classical
       intra-enterprise applications. At this workshop, we will
       explore commonalities between different application
       scenarios, and standardization needs (at W3C and elsewhere)
       above and beyond the technology substrate that exists
       today.
