1 month ago Thank you for proposing a session!
You may update the session description as needed and at any time before the meeting, but please keep in mind that tooling relies on issue formatting: follow the instructions and leave all headings and other formatting intact in particular. Bots and W3C meeting organizers may also update the description, to fix formatting issues or add links and other relevant information. Please do not revert these changes. Feel free to use comments to raise questions.
Do not expect formal approval; W3C meeting organizers endeavor to schedule all proposed sessions that are in scope for a breakout. Actual scheduling should take place shortly before the meeting.
Session description
After 12 years of Community Group operations and many discussions about their role in Specification incubation, the Staff are working on greater alignment of the Community Group program with the W3C mission. We are planning enhancements to address a small number of situations of concern for those CGs that publish Specifications. (As a reminder, CG Specifications are the subset of CG Reports that are subject to the CLA and FSA.) CG Specifications that gain traction outside of the guarantees provided by standardization processes risk weakening the W3C mission; through these CG program enhancements we seek to reduce that risk.
During this breakout, we will discuss the situations of concern that are motivating this work, share initial ideas to address them, and recruit early testers and adopters of these enhancements.
After TPAC we will continue this work in the Community Council.
Session goal
Raise awareness and generate interest in potential enhancements to the CG program.
