Dear W3C Public Newsletter Subscriber, The 2014-09-29 version of the W3C Public Newsletter is online: http://www.w3.org/News/Public/pnews-20140929 A simplified plain text version is available below. Ian Jacobs, W3C Communications Team ----------------------------------- Last Call: CSS Flexible Box Layout Module Level 1 25 September 2014 | Archive http://www.w3.org/blog/news/archives/4100 The Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) Working Group has published a Last Call Working Draft of "CSS Flexible Box Layout Module Level 1." The specification describes a CSS box model optimized for user interface design. In the flex layout model, the children of a flex container can be laid out in any direction, and can “flex” their sizes, either growing to fill unused space or shrinking to avoid overflowing the parent. Both horizontal and vertical alignment of the children can be easily manipulated. Nesting of these boxes (horizontal inside vertical, or vertical inside horizontal) can be used to build layouts in two dimensions. Comments are welcome through 25 October. Learn more about the Style Activity. http://www.w3.org/Style/CSS/members http://www.w3.org/TR/2014/WD-css-flexbox-1-20140925/ http://www.w3.org/Style/ Document Object Model (DOM) Level 3 Events Specification Draft Published 25 September 2014 | Archive http://www.w3.org/blog/news/archives/4098 The Web Applications Working Group has published a Working Draft of "Document Object Model (DOM) Level 3 Events Specification." DOM Events is designed with two main goals. The first goal is the design of an event system which allows registration of event listeners and describes event flow through a tree structure. Additionally, the specification will provide standard modules of events for user interface control and document mutation notifications, including defined contextual information for each of these event modules. The second goal of DOM Events is to provide a common subset of the current event systems used in existing browsers. This is intended to foster interoperability of existing scripts and content.

UAAG defines how browsers, media players, and other “user agents” should support accessibility for people with disabilities and work with assistive technologies. It is introduced in the UAAG Overview.

This includes discussing basic privacy UI features that will, on the long run, create a user experience that loops with user expectations. We expect certain controls and dashboards in a car. Perhaps we can create a similar clarity for the privacy dashboard of our devices. The Workshop focus will be on users: user experience, user behavior and how we can offer controls that provide the necessary transparency of privacy-affecting interactions. We will also discuss how developers can meet users' privacy needs on the Web, including what APIs are necessary for user privacy.
