CSS Regions Module Level 1 Draft Published
9 October 2014 | Archive
http://www.w3.org/blog/news/archives/4131
The Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) Working Group has published a
Working Draft of "CSS Regions Module Level 1." The CSS Regions
module allows content from one or more elements to flow through
one or more boxes called CSS Regions, fragmented as defined in
CSS3-BREAK. This module also defines CSSOM to expose both the
inputs and outputs of this fragmentation. CSS is a language for
describing the rendering of structured documents (such as HTML
and XML) on screen, on paper, in speech, etc. Learn more about
the Style Activity.

Selection API First Public Draft Published; Push API Draft Published
7 October 2014 | Archive
http://www.w3.org/blog/news/archives/4122
The Web Applications Working Group has published two documents
today:
http://www.w3.org/2008/webapps/
* A First Public Working Draft of Selection API. This
document is a preliminary draft of a specification for the
Selection API and selection related functionality. It
replaces a couple of old sections of the HTML
specification, the selection part of the old DOM Range
specification.
* A Working Draft of Push API. The Push API provides webapps
with scripted access to server-sent messages, for
simplicity referred to here as push messages, as delivered
by push services. A push service allows a webapp server to
send messages to a webapp, regardless of whether the webapp
is currently active on the user agent. The push message
will be delivered to a Service Worker, which could then
store the message’s data or display a notification to the
user. This specification is designed to promote
compatibility with any delivery method for push messages
from push services to user agents.

Workshops
* 2014-11-20 (20 NOV) – 2014-11-21 (21 NOV)
Workshop on Privacy and User–Centric Controls
https://www.w3.org/2014/privacyws/
Berlin, Germany
Hosted by Deutsche Telekom
Participants will investigate strategies toward better
privacy protection on the Web that are effective and lead
to benefits in the near term. 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.
