Dear W3C Public Newsletter Subscriber, The 2009-11-16 version of the W3C Public Newsletter is online: http://www.w3.org/News/Public/pnews-20091116 A simplified plain text version is available below. Ian Jacobs, W3C Communications Team ----------------------------------- 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. http://igf09.eg/homeeng http://www.webfoundation.org http://www.w3.org/News/2008#entry-6786 http://www.webfoundation.org/projects/greening-africa/ http://www-dev.webfoundation.org/projects/empower-youth/ http://www.w3.org/2008/MW4D/ http://www.w3.org/WAI/ http://www.w3.org/International/ More news: http://www.w3.org/News/archive 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.
