Web Security Context: User Interface Guidelines is a W3C
Recommendation

   12 August 2010 | Archive

   http://www.w3.org/News/2010#entry-8875

   The Web Security Context Working Group has published a W3C
   Recommendation of "Web Security Context: User Interface
   Guidelines." This specification deals with the trust decisions
   that users must make online, and with ways to support them in
   making safe and informed decisions where possible. It describes
   user interactions and user interface guidelines with a goal
   toward making security usable, based on known best practice in
   this area. Learn more about the Security Activity.

   In July, W3C brought together participants across the industry
   for a privacy workshop (organized jointly with the PrimeLife EU
   project in London). Discussion topics included privacy-related
   implementation experience with the "W3C geolocation API," and
   privacy icon and ruleset proposals for Web sites and APIs,
   respectively. Read the Workshop Report and learn more about the

Call for Review: MathML 3.0; MathML for CSS Profile are Proposed
Recommendations

   10 August 2010 | Archive

   http://www.w3.org/News/2010#entry-8873

   The Math Working Group published two Proposed Recommendations
   today: "Mathematical Markup Language (MathML) Version 3.0" and
   "A MathML for CSS Profile." This first defines the
   Mathematical Markup Language, or MathML, which enables people
   to express mathematics in Web documents. The second describes a
   profile of MathML 3.0 that is suitable for styling with
   Cascading Style Sheets (CSS). Comments are welcome through 10
   September. Learn more about the Math Activity.

Workshops

     * 2010-09-02 ( 2 SEP) – 2010-09-03 ( 3 SEP)
       Web on TV
       http://www.w3.org/2010/09/web-on-tv/
       Tokyo, Japan
       With the support of the Japan Ministry of Internal Affairs
       and Communications
       The demand for access to applications, video, and other
       network services continues to grow. The Web platform itself
       continues its expansion to support mobile devices,
       television, home appliances, in-car systems, and more
       consumer electronics. To meet the growing demand, the Web
       platform of the future will require smarter integration of
       non-PC devices with Web technology so that both hardware
       and software vendors can provide richer Web applications on
       various devices at lower costs.
     * 2010-10-04 ( 4 OCT) – 2010-10-05 ( 5 OCT)
       Workshop on Privacy and Data Usage Control
       http://www.w3.org/2010/policy-ws/
       Cambridge, MA, USA
       This workshop will explore solutions to privacy based on
       controlling data usage and on data handling. We also
       solicit contributions on techniques for `sticky policies'
       that ensure that policies constantly move along with the
       related data.

       Workshop on Emotion Markup Language

       The Multilingual Web - Where Are We?
       http://www.w3.org/International/multilingualweb/madrid/cfp
       Madrid, Spain
       Hosted by the Universidad Politécnica de Madrid
       Today, the World Wide Web is fundamental to communication
       in all walks of life. As the share of English web pages
       decreases and that of other languages increases, it is
       vitally important to ensure the multilingual success of the
       World Wide Web.
       The MultilingualWeb project is looking at best practices
       and standards related to all aspects of creating,
       localizing and deploying the Web multilingually. The
       project aims to raise the visibility of existing best
       practices and standards and identify gaps. The core vehicle
       for this is a series of four events which are planned for
       the coming two years. As the first of the four events, this
       workshop will introduce and review currently available best
       practices and standards aimed at helping content creators,
       localizers, tools developers, and others meet the
       challenges of the multilingual Web.
