W3C Announces First Draft of Standard for Online Privacy
14 November 2011 | Archive
http://www.w3.org/News/2011#entry-9257
To address rising concerns about privacy on the Web, W3C
publishes today two first drafts for standards that allow users
to express preferences about online tracking:
* Tracking Preference Expression (DNT), which defines
mechanisms for users to express cross-site tracking
preferences and for sites to indicate whether they honor
these preferences.
* Tracking Compliance and Scope Specification, which defines
the meaning of a "Do Not Track" preference and sets out
practices for websites to comply with this preference.
These documents are the early work of a broad set of
stakeholders in the W3C Tracking Protection Working Group,
including browser vendors, content providers, advertisers,
search engines, and experts in policy, privacy, and consumer
protection. W3C invites review of these early drafts, expected
to become standards by mid-2012. Read the full press release
and testimonials and learn more about Privacy.

08 November 2011 | Archive
http://www.w3.org/News/2011#entry-9253
W3C today published the final report of the Third W3C Web and
TV Workshop, hosted by Comcast Cable 19-20 September in
Hollywood, California. Nearly 150 representatives from key
stakeholders participated, including major browser vendors,
content providers, video service providers, TV broadcasters,
cable operators, and CE manufacturers. Participants in the
Workshop focused on addressing gaps between the experiences,
perspectives, and expectations of the entertainment industry
and the Web community. In addition, the Web and TV Interest
Group discussed the issues from the workshop during its first
F2F meeting on September 21-22, and decided on next steps for
each issue, e.g., submit functional gaps to Working Groups or
create new Interest Group Task Forces. The conclusion is
included in the group's September Report.

W3C Co-organizes Meeting on Domain Names and Persistence at IDCC11
08 November 2011 | Archive
http://www.w3.org/News/2011#entry-9252
On 8 December 2011 at the International Digital Curation
Conference (IDCC), W3C is co-organizing with the Digital
Curation Centre a workshop on Domain Names and Persistence, in
Bristol, UK. The vulnerability of any digital material to
unexpected or unintended changes in Internet domain name
assignment, and hence to the outcome of domain name resolution,
is widely recognised. The fact that domain names are not
permanently assigned is regularly cited as one of the main
reasons why http: URIs cannot be regarded as persistent
identifiers over the long term. This workshop is intended to
bring together interested parties to explore the dimensions of
the problem and possible directions in which to look for
solutions. Learn about related work by the W3C Technical
Architecture Group (TAG).

Linked Enterprise Data Patterns: Data-driven Applications
on the Web
http://www.w3.org/2011/09/LinkedData/
Cambridge, MA, USA
Hosted by W3C/MIT
Linked Data technology also offers a huge potential for
enterprise applications, e.g., for the integration and the
management of data within and across enterprises. The
distributed nature of Linked Data enables loose-coupling
for data sharing within and between organizations. With
Linked Data, enterprises have a unique opportunity to
cooperate in their use of shared data without the costs of
extensive coordination. Sharing a common data model (RDF)
allows us to establish design patterns for providing
dereferencable resource identifiers, migrating and cloning
data as business needs and data authorities evolve. These
will address issues such as data distribution, query
federation, access control, encryption and signature, legal
problems around the access of datasets and business models
in using open or closed linked data. Please join the W3C
Linked Data community at this workshop to air requirements,
share solutions and develop a healthy and scalable Linked
Enterprise Data infrastructure.
