Dear W3C Public Newsletter Subscriber, The 2013-04-22 version of the W3C Public Newsletter is online: http://www.w3.org/News/Public/pnews-20130422 A simplified plain text version is available below. Ian Jacobs, W3C Communications Team ----------------------------------- 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.

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).

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. http://www.w3.org/Style/CSS/members http://www.w3.org/TR/2013/WD-css-overflow-3-20130418/ http://www.w3.org/Style/ 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. http://www.w3.org/XML/EXI/ http://www.w3.org/TR/2013/CR-exi-profile-20130416/ http://www.w3.org/XML/ 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.

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.
