Ohjaamassa Webin kehittymistä täyteen mittaansa...

World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) kehittää yhteisiä ja yhteensopivia Webin pelisääntöjä ja teknologioita (spesifikaatioita, ohjeita, ohjelmistoja sekä työkaluja; ks. W3C Technical Reports and Publications [en]). Työn tavoitteena on ohjata Webin kehittymistä täyteen mittaansa tiedonvälityksen, kaupankäynnin, kommunikaation ja yhteisymmärryksen foorumina. (Ks. W3C pähkinänkuoressa.)

suomeksi W3C Suomen toimisto julkistettiin 11. lokakuuta 2002. W3C-aluetoimiston toiminta-ajatus on jakaa tietoa W3C:stä ja sen työstä, tarjota suora yhteys W3C:hen, koordinoida alueellisia hankkeita sekä kannustaa alueellisia liikeyrityksiä ja organisaatioita liittymään mukaan W3C:n toimintaan.

Uutisia 2012-01-19: Kaksi XML Schema -suositusehdotusta

The XML Schema Working Group has published Proposed Recommendations of two specifications: W3C XML Schema Definition Language (XSD) 1.1 Part 1: Structures, W3C XML Schema Definition Language (XSD) 1.1 Part 2: Datatypes. The former specifies the XML Schema Definition Language, which offers facilities for describing the structure and constraining the contents of XML documents, including those which exploit the XML Namespace facility. The schema language, which is itself represented in an XML vocabulary and uses namespaces, substantially reconstructs and considerably extends the capabilities found in XML document type definitions (DTDs). This specification depends on XML Schema Definition Language 1.1 Part 2: Datatypes, which defines facilities for defining datatypes to be used in XML Schemas as well as other XML specifications. The datatype language, which is itself represented in XML, provides a superset of the capabilities found in XML document type definitions (DTDs) for specifying datatypes on elements and attributes. Comments are welcome through 20 February. Learn more about the Extensible Markup Language (XML) Activity.

Uutisia 2012-01-19: Extensible Stylesheet Language (XSL) Version 2.0, luonnos

The XML Print and Page Layout Working Group has published a Working Draft of Extensible Stylesheet Language (XSL) Version 2.0. XSL-FO is an XML vocabulary that uses CSS and additional properties for formatting documents to paged media. Learn more about the Extensible Markup Language (XML) Activity.

Uutisia 2012-01-18: Workshop-raportti: Linked Enterprise Data Workshop

W3C today published the final report of the Linked Enterprise Data Workshop, hosted by W3C on the 6-7 December in Cambridge, MA, USA. This workshop provided a way for the community to meet and discuss some of the challenges when deploying application relying on the principles of Linked Data. The presentations covered many different topics, ranging from the benefits a set of additional conventions would bring to specific technical issues such as the challenges of dealing with the reality that URLs do change sometimes, as well as the need for a more robust security model, and specific gaps in the current set of standards.

Participants of the Workshop agreed that W3C should create a Working Group to define a “Linked Data Platform”. This is expected to be an enumeration of specifications which constitute Linked Data, with some small additional specifications to cover specific functionality such as pagination. We anticipate a draft charter will be available in the coming weeks.

Uutisia 2012-01-18: Implementations of Navigation Timing, implementointikutsu

The Web Performance Working Group invites implementation of the Candidate Recommendation of Navigation Timing. User latency is an important quality benchmark for Web Applications. While JavaScript-based mechanisms can provide comprehensive instrumentation for user latency measurements within an application, in many cases, they are unable to provide a complete end-to-end latency picture. To address the need for complete information on user experience, this document introduces the PerformanceTiming interfaces. This interface allows JavaScript mechanisms to provide complete client-side latency measurements within applications. Learn more about the Rich Web Client Activity.

Uutisia 2012-01-18: CSS Basic User Interface Module Level 3 (CSS3 UI), viimeinen kommentoitava luonnos

The Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) Working Group has published a Last Call Working Draft of CSS Basic User Interface Module Level 3 (CSS3 UI). The Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) is a language for describing the rendering of HTML and XML documents on screen, on paper, in speech, etc. It uses various selectors, properties and values to style basic user interface elements in a document. This specification describes those user interface related selectors, properties and values that are proposed for CSS level 3 to style HTML and XML (including XHTML and XForms). It includes and extends user interface related features from the selectors, properties and values of CSS level 2 revision 1 and Selectors specifications. Comments are welcome through 14 February. Learn more about the Style Activity.
