XML Signature and XML Encryption are W3C Recommendations
16 April 2013 | Archive
http://www.w3.org/News/2013#entry-9789
The XML Security Working Group has published three W3C
Recommendations today:
http://www.w3.org/2008/xmlsec/
* XML Signature Syntax and Processing Version 1.1. This
document specifies XML digital signature processing rules
and syntax. XML Signatures provide integrity, message
authentication, and/or signer authentication services for
data of any type, whether located within the XML that
includes the signature or elsewhere.
* XML Encryption Syntax and Processing Version 1.1. This
document specifies a process for encrypting data and
representing the result in XML. The data may be in a
variety of formats, including octet streams and other
unstructured data, or structured data formats such as XML
documents, an XML element, or XML element content. The
result of encrypting data is an XML Encryption element that
contains or references the cipher data.
* XML Signature Properties. This document outlines the
syntax, processing rules and an associated namespace for
properties to be used in XML Signatures. These can be
composed with any version of XML Signature using the XML
SignatureProperties element. These properties are intended
to meet code signing requirements.
The group also published thirteen "Working Group Notes" today.
Learn more about the Security Activity.

XML Digital Signatures for Widgets is a W3C Recommendation
18 April 2013 | Archive
http://www.w3.org/News/2013#entry-9795
The Web Applications Working Group has published a W3C
Recommendation of "XML Digital Signatures for Widgets." This
document defines a profile of the XML Signature Syntax and
Processing specification to allow a widget package to be
digitally signed. Authors and distributors can digitally sign a
widget as a mechanism to ensure continuity of authorship and
distributorship. A user agent, or other validation system, can
use a digital signature to verify the data integrity of the
files within a widget package and to confirm the signing
key(s). Learn more about the Rich Web Client Activity.

CSS Overflow Module Level 3 Draft Published
18 April 2013 | Archive
http://www.w3.org/News/2013#entry-9794
The Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) Working Group has published a
Working Draft of "CSS Overflow Module Level 3." This module
contains the features of CSS relating to new mechanisms of
overflow handling in visual media (e.g., screen or paper). In
interactive media, it describes features that allow the
overflow from a fixed size container to be handled by
pagination (displaying one page at a time). It also describes
features, applying to all visual media, that allow the contents
of an element to be spread across multiple fragments, allowing
the contents to flow across multiple regions or to have
different styles for different fragments. Learn more about the
Style Activity.

W3C Invites Implementations of Efficient XML Interchange (EXI)
Profile
16 April 2013 | Archive
http://www.w3.org/News/2013#entry-9791
The Efficient XML Interchange Working Group invites
implementation of the Candidate Recommendation of "Efficient
XML Interchange (EXI) Profile." This document describes a
profile of the EXI 1.0 specification for devices with limited
memory capacities. Learn more about the Extensible Markup
Language (XML) Activity.

Call for Review: Emotion Markup Language (EmotionML) 1.0 Proposed
Recommendation Published
16 April 2013 | Archive
http://www.w3.org/News/2013#entry-9790
The W3C Multimodal Working Group has published a Proposed
Recommendation of "Emotion Markup Language (EmotionML) 1.0."
As the web is becoming ubiquitous, interactive, and multimodal,
technology needs to deal increasingly with human factors,
including emotions. The specification of Emotion Markup
Language 1.0 aims to strike a balance between practical
applicability and scientific well-foundedness. The language is
conceived as a "plug-in" language suitable for use in three
different areas: (1) manual annotation of data; (2) automatic
recognition of emotion-related states from user behavior; and
(3) generation of emotion-related system behavior. Comments are
welcome through 14 May. Learn more about the Multimodal
Interaction Activity.

Media Source Extensions Draft Published
16 April 2013 | Archive
http://www.w3.org/News/2013#entry-9788
The HTML Working Group has published a Working Draft of "Media
Source Extensions." This specification extends
HTMLMediaElement to allow JavaScript to generate media streams
for playback. Allowing JavaScript to generate streams
facilitates a variety of use cases like adaptive streaming and
time shifting live streams. Learn more about the HTML Activity.
