W3C Workshop: The Multilingual Web – Linked Open Data and
MultilingualWeb-LT Requirements
10 April 2012 | Archive
http://www.w3.org/News/2012#entry-9418
W3C announces today a Workshop on Linked Open Data and
MultilingualWeb-LT Requirements, 11-13 June in Dublin, Ireland.
Organized by the MultilingualWeb-LT Working Group, the purpose
of this workshop is two-fold: first, to discuss the
intersection between Linked Open Data and Multilingual
Technologies, and second, to discuss Requirements of the W3C
MultilingualWeb-LT Working Group. Participation is free. We
welcome participation from both speakers and non-speaking
attendees. However, whereas future MultilingualWeb workshops
will continue the wide-ranging format of previous
MultilingualWeb events, and will aim again at a larger
audience, attendees for this workshop are required to
participate actively in discussions and will need to submit a
position statement for the workshop registration. There are
limited spaces available. Learn more about Internationalization
at W3C.

CSS Variables Module Level 1 Draft Published
10 April 2012 | Archive
http://www.w3.org/News/2012#entry-9415
The Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) Working Group has published
the First Public Working Draft of "CSS Variables Module Level
1." CSS is a language for describing the rendering of
structured documents (such as HTML and XML) on screen, on
paper, in speech, etc. This module contains the features of CSS
level 3 relating to variables. It includes and extends the
functionality of CSS level 2, which builds on CSS level 1. The
main extensions compared to level 2 are the introduction of the
variable as a new primitive value type that is accepted by all
properties. Learn more about the Style Activity.

Hosted by the European Commission
For many years, W3C has been a keen promoter of Open Data,
fostering a culture in which public administrations make
their data available, ideally in machine-processable
formats. Many governments have embraced the idea with
enthusiasm, setting up national data portals. As part of
the FP7-funded Crossover Project, W3C and the European
Commission are running a Workshop in June, just ahead of
the Digital Agenda Summit, to ask a simple question: what
is all the 'new' government open data being used for?
