Mobile Web Best Practices, Content Transformation Guidelines Advance;
W3C Seeks Implementation and Review
11 February 2010 | Archive
http://www.w3.org/News/2010#entry-8719
The Mobile Web Best Practices Working Group invites
implementation of the Candidate Recommendation of "Mobile Web
Application Best Practices." The goal of this document is to
aid the development of rich and dynamic mobile Web
applications. It collects the most relevant engineering
practices, promoting those that enable a better user experience
and warning against those that are considered harmful. W3C
invites implementers to complete an implementation report
template. The group also published today a Last Call Working
Draft of "Guidelines for Web Content Transformation Proxies
1.0," which provides guidance to Content Transformation
proxies as to whether and how to transform Web content.
Comments on the latter document are welcome through 11 March.

W3C Community Invited to Discuss Future Standards for Model-Based
User Interfaces
12 February 2010 | Archive
http://www.w3.org/News/2010#entry-8723
W3C announced today a Workshop on Future Standards for
Model-Based User Interfaces, 13-14 May 2010 in Rome Italy.
Participants will examine the challenges facing Web developers
due to variations in device capabilities, modes of interaction
and software standards, the need to support assistive
technologies for accessibility, and the demand for richer user
interfaces. Discussion will focus on reviewing research on
model-based design of context- sensitive user interfaces in
relation to these challenges, and the opportunities for new
open standards in the area of Model-Based User Interfaces. W3C
Membership is not required to participate; anyone who satisfies
the participation requirements may attend as long as space
permits. Statements of interest are due 2 April. Please see the
Call for Participation for more information.

RIF Production Rules Dialect Revised; Last Call for Comments
12 February 2010 | Archive
http://www.w3.org/News/2010#entry-8721
During the implementation phase of the Rule Interchange Format
(RIF), the Working Group discovered a problem with the design
of the Production Rules Dialect. This problem is addressed with
a new "Last Call Working Draft" that changes the way actions
are handled to more closely match existing production rule
engines. Please send comments and RIF implementation reports to
public-rif-comments@w3.org. Last Call comments should be sent
before 5 March. Learn more about the Semantic Web.

Call for Review: XML Entity Definitions for Characters Proposed
Recommendation Published
11 February 2010 | Archive
http://www.w3.org/News/2010#entry-8720
The Math Working Group has published a Proposed Recommendation
of "XML Entity Definitions for Characters." This document
presents a completed listing harmonizing the known uses in math
and science of character entity names that appear throughout
the XML world and Unicode. This document is the result of years
of employing entity names on the Web. There were always a few
named entities used for special characters in HTML, but a flood
of new names came with the symbols of mathematics. Comments are
welcome through 11 March. Learn more about the Math Activity.

W3C Welcomes Comments on First Draft of Web Services Event
Descriptions
10 February 2010 | Archive
http://www.w3.org/News/2010#entry-8718
The Web Services Resource Access Working Group has published
the First Public Working Draft of "Web Services Event
Descriptions (WS-EventDescriptions)." In the Web Services
context, there are many use cases in which it is necessary for
an endpoint to advertise the structure and contents of the
events that it might generate. For example, a subscriber might
wish to know the shape of the events that are generated in
order to properly formulate a filter to limit the number of
notifications that are transmitted, or to ensure it can
successfully process the type of events that are transmitted.
This specification describes a mechanism by which an endpoint
can advertise the structure and contents of the events it might
generate. Learn more about the Web Services Activity.
