RDF Validation Workshop - Practical Assurances for Quality RDF Data
22 May 2013 | Archive
http://www.w3.org/News/2013#entry-9834
W3C announced today a RDF Validation Workshop - Practical
Assurances for Quality RDF Data, 10-11 September 2013, in
Cambridge, USA. The Semantic Web has demonstrated considerable
value for collaborative contributions to data. Adoption in many
mission-critical environments requires data to conform to
specified patterns. Validation in a banking context shares many
requirements with quality assurance of linked clinical data.
Systems like Linked Open Data, which don't have formal
interface specifications, share these validation needs. Most
data representation languages used in conventional settings
offer some sort of input validation, ranging from parsing
grammars for domain-specific languages to XML Schema or RelaxNG
for XML structures. While the distributed nature of RDF affects
the notions of "validity", tool chains need to be established
to ensure data integrity. The goal of this workshop is to
discuss use cases for data validation on the Semantic Web with
development of technologies to enable those use cases. W3C
membership is not required to participate. The event is open to
all. All participants are required to submit a position paper
by 30 June 2013.

Published
23 May 2013 | Archive
http://www.w3.org/News/2013#entry-9838
The Web Application Security Working Group has published a
Working Draft of "User Interface Security Directives for
Content Security Policy." This document defines directives for
the Content Security Policy mechanism to declare a set of input
protections for a web resource's user interface, defines a
non-normative set of heuristics for Web user agents to
implement these input protections, and a reporting mechanism
for when they are triggered. Learn more about the Security
Activity.

The Device APIs Working Group and the Web Applications
(WebApps) Working Group have published Working Group Note of
"Web Intents." This informative specification defines a
service discovery and light-weight RPC mechanism for web apps
called Web Intents. This document defines DOM interfaces and
markup used by client and service pages to create, receive, and
reply to Web Intents messages, and the procedures the User
Agent carries out to facilitate that process. Learn more about
the Ubiquitous Web Applications Activity.

have new examples of how UAAG applies in the mobile
environment, an updated conformance section, and new
definitions of level A, AA, and AAA. Learn more in the call for

Updated Candidate Recommendation of XPath and XQuery Functions and
Operators 3.0
21 May 2013 | Archive
http://www.w3.org/News/2013#entry-9832
The XML Query Working Group and the XSLT Working Group have
published a new version of the Candidate Recommendation of
"XPath and XQuery Functions and Operators 3.0." The new
version reflects changes and clarifications that have been made
during the CR period, primarily as a result of feedback from
implementors outside the two Working Groups. The document
describes various functions and operators that work on XML
Schema-compatible data types for use in XPath, XSLT, XQuery,
XQueryX, SPARQL and other languages. Learn more about the
Extensible Markup Language (XML) Activity.
