<http://www.w3.org/blog/news/archives/4837>
The Web Performance Working Group has published a Working Draft
of "Performance Timeline Level 2." This specification extends
the High Resolution Time specification HR-TIME-2 by providing

Four CSV on the Web Documents are W3C Candidate Recommendations
16 July 2015
<http://www.w3.org/blog/news/archives/4830>
The CSV on the Web Working Group has published a Candidate
Recommendation for four documents:
<https://www.w3.org/2013/csvw/wiki/Main_Page>
* Model for Tabular Data and Metadata on the Web—an abstract
model for tabular data, and how to locate metadata that
enables users to better understand what the data holds;
this specification also contains non-normative guidance on
how to parse CSV files
* Metadata Vocabulary for Tabular Data—a JSON-based format
for expressing metadata about tabular data to inform
validation, conversion, display and data entry for tabular
data
* Generating JSON from Tabular Data on the Web—how to convert
tabular data into JSON
* Generating RDF from Tabular Data on the Web—how to convert
tabular data into RDF
Candidate Recommendation means that the Working Group considers
the technical design to be complete, and is seeking
implementation feedbacks on the documents. There are over 600
test cases and a separate document on how to use them and
report on implementation results. The group is keen to get
comments and implementation experiences on these
specifications, either as issues on the Group’s GitHub
repository or by posting to public-csv-wg-comments@w3.org.
<http://www.w3.org/2013/csvw/tests/>
<https://github.com/w3c/csvw/issues>
<mailto:public-csv-wg-comments@w3.org>
The group expects to satisfy the implementation goals (i.e., at
least two, independent implementations for each of the test
cases) by October 30, 2015.

High Resolution Time Level 2 Draft Published
14 July 2015
<http://www.w3.org/blog/news/archives/4812>
The Web Performance Working Group has published a Working Draft
of "High Resolution Time Level 2." This specification defines
an API that provides the current time in sub-millisecond
resolution and such that it is not subject to system clock skew
or adjustments. Learn more about the Rich Web Client Activity.

Last Call: Tracking Compliance and Scope
14 July 2015
<http://www.w3.org/blog/news/archives/4814>
The Tracking Protection Working Group has published a Last Call
Working Draft of "Tracking Compliance and Scope." This
specification defines a set of practices for compliance with a
user’s Do Not Track (DNT) tracking preference to which a server
may claim adherence. Comments are welcome through 07 October.
Learn more about the Privacy Activity.

WAI-ARIA 1.1 and Core-AAM 1.1 Updated Working Drafts
14 July 2015
<http://www.w3.org/blog/news/archives/4819>
The Protocols and Formats Working Group has published Updated
Working Drafts of "Accessible Rich Internet Applications
(WAI-ARIA) 1.1," "Core Accessibility API Mappings (Core-AAM)
1.1," and "Accessible Name and Description: Computation and
API Mappings 1.1" (AccName-AAM).
<http://www.w3.org/WAI/PF>
<http://www.w3.org/TR/2015/WD-wai-aria-1.1-20150514/>
<http://www.w3.org/TR/2015/WD-core-aam-1.1-20150514/>
<http://www.w3.org/TR/2015/WD-accname-aam-1.1-20150714/>
WAI-ARIA provides an ontology of roles, states, and properties
that define accessible user interface elements. It is designed
to improve the accessibility and interoperability of web
content, particularly web applications.
Core-AAM describes how user agents should expose semantics of
content languages to accessibility APIs across multiple content
technologies (including much of WAI-ARIA), and serves as the
basis for other specifications to extend the mappings to
specific technologies.
AccName-AAM describes how user agents determine names and
descriptions of accessible objects from web content languages
and expose them in accessibility APIs.

Web Accessibility Initiative (WAI).
