Dear Authoring Tool Guidelines Working Group Member: The revised charter for the WAI Authoring Tool Guidelines Working Group (AUWG) has been sent to the W3C Advisory Committee for review. The new charter is provisionally in effect until February 10 at which point it becomes final unless comments are received from AC members. It is now linked from the AU home page at <http://www.w3.org/WAI/AU>. W3C has re-opened the Call for Participation for the AUWG. It is particularly valuable to have authoring tool manufacturers (including HTML editors, conversion tools, site management tools etc.) participating directly in the group, and WAI encourages their participation. All previous AUWG members who intend to participate actively in the AUWG must re-apply for AUWG by reading the charter at <http://www.w3.org/WAI/AU/charter-19990109>; agree to the terms of participation; fill out the Call for Participation at the end of the charter; and sending it to <wai-au-call@w3.org>. W3C non-Members must indicate their area of technical expertise. After one month, inactive participants will be removed from the mailing list but will still be able to follow the discussion through the public mail archive. Please note also that there is a face-to-face meeting of the AUWG scheduled for March 1 and 2, hosted by Lotus Development Corporation, in Cambridge, Massachusetts, USA. All active members of the Working Group are encouraged to attend. Information on the meeting is available on the W3C Events Calendar <http://www.w3.org/Member/Eventscal> and pre-registration is required by Friday, February 19. If you would like further information about the working group or the meeting, please contact the Chair, Jutta Treviranus <jutta.treviranus@utoronto.ca>, or the W3C staff contact for AUWG, Charles McCathieNevile <charles@w3.org>.
