While I think W3C can co-operate effectively with the IETF and other bodies - along with the great amounts of expertise and talented individuals in WebAppSec and WebCrypto WGs - to provide security reviews of specs, having security expertise on the TAG is one way to strengthen the W3C in this regard. > -- > Marcos Caceres > > >
