IndieUI: Events (for Mobile and More) Updated Working Draft Published
29 May 2014 | Archive
http://www.w3.org/blog/news/archives/3873
The IndieUI Working Group today published an updated Working
Draft of "IndieUI: Events 1.0" – Events for User Interface
Independence. This draft includes new events and a refined
technical model. IndieUI defines a way for different user
interactions to be translated into simple events and
communicated to Web applications. (For example, if a user wants
to scroll down a page, they might use their finger on a touch
screen, or click a scroll bar with a mouse, or use a scroll
wheel, or say ‘scroll down’ with a voice command. With IndieUI,
these are all sent to the Web app as simply: scroll down.)
IndieUI will make it easier for Web applications to work in a
wide range of contexts — different devices (such as mobile
phones and tablets), different assistive technologies (AT),
different user needs. With IndieUI, Web application developers
will have a uniform way to design applications that work for
multiple devices and contexts. Comments on this Draft are
encouraged by 27 June 2014. Learn more from the IndieUI
Overview and the Updated Working Draft: IndieUI Events e-mail;
and read about the Web Accessibility Initiative (WAI).

The Voice Browser Working Group has published a Last Call
Working Draft of "State Chart XML (SCXML): State Machine
Notation for Control Abstraction." This document describes
SCXML, or the “State Chart extensible Markup Language”. SCXML
provides a generic state-machine based execution environment
based on CCXML and Harel State Tables. Comments are welcome
through 26 June. Learn more about the Voice Browser Activity.

Last Call: The app: URL Scheme
29 May 2014 | Archive
http://www.w3.org/blog/news/archives/3867
The System Applications Working Group has published a Last Call
Working Draft of "The app: URL Scheme." This specification
defines the app: URL scheme. The app: URL scheme can be used by
packaged applications to obtain resources that are inside a
container. These resources can then be used with web platform
features that accept URLs. Comments are welcome through 24
June. Learn more about the Ubiquitous Web Applications
Activity.

First Public Working Drafts: W3C HTML Form HTTP Extensions, W3C HTML
JSON Form Submission
29 May 2014 | Archive
http://www.w3.org/blog/news/archives/3865
The HTML Working Group has published two First Public Working
Drafts today.
http://www.w3.org/html/wg/
* W3C HTML Form HTTP Extensions. This is an addendum to the
specification of HTML5 forms extending the abilities of
configuring HTTP requests through HTML markup.
* W3C HTML JSON form submission. This specification defines a
new form encoding algorithm that enables the transmission
of form data as JSON. Instead of capturing form data as
essentially an array of key-value pairs which is the bread
and butter of existing form encodings, it relies on a
simple name attribute syntax that makes it possible to
capture rich data structures as JSON directly.

Workshop on the Web of Things
http://www.w3.org/2014/02/wot/
Berlin, Germany
Hosted by Siemens
Participants in this workshop will examine the potential
for open standards as a basis for services, either between
devices, at the network edge, e.g. in home hubs, or in the
cloud. They will discuss the use of web protocols and
scripting languages for implementing services, the need for
APIs for implementing drivers for specific IoT
technologies, a shared approach to describing services as a
basis for interoperability, and the underlying use of
HTTP/COAP, Web Sockets, and EXI/JSON for RESTful services.
* 2014-09-10 (10 SEP) – 2014-09-11 (11 SEP)
