17 September 2010 | Archive
http://www.w3.org/News/2010#entry-8899
W3C is pleased to announce the creation of the Unified Service
Description Language Incubator Group, whose mission is to
define a language for describing general and generic parts of
technical and business services to allow services to become
tradable and consumable. The following W3C Members have
sponsored the charter for this group: Attensity Europe GmbH
(formerly Empolis GmbH), German Research Center for Artificial
Intelligence (DFKI GmbH), SAP AG, Siemens AG. Read more about
the Incubator Activity, an initiative to foster development of
emerging Web-related technologies. Incubator Activity work is
not on the W3C standards track but in many cases serves as a
starting point for a future Working Group.

Call for Review: Timed Text Markup Language (TTML) 1.0 Proposed
Recommendation

transcoding or exchanging timed text information among legacy
distribution content formats presently in use for subtitling
and captioning functions. Comments are welcome through 12
October. Learn more about the Video in the Web Activity.

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.
