W3C Invites Implementations of CSS Namespaces Module (Candidate
Recommendation)
   The Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) Working Group has published the
   Candidate Recommendation of "CSS Namespaces Module." This CSS
   Namespaces module defines the syntax for using namespaces in CSS. It
   defines the @namespace rule for declaring the default namespace and
   binding namespaces to namespace prefixes, and it also defines a
   syntax that other specifications can adopt for using those prefixes
   in namespace-qualified names. Learn more about the Style Activity.

   The Web API Working Group has published a Working Draft of "Progress
   Events 1.0."This document describes event types that can be used
   for monitoring the progress of an operation. It is primarily
   intended for contexts such as data transfer operations specified by
   "XMLHTTPRequest," or "Media Access Events." Learn more about the
   Rich Web Client Activity.

W3C Invites Implementations of XQuery and XPath Full Text 1.0
(Candidate Recommendation); Requirements and Use Cases Drafts Available
   The W3C XML Query Working Group and the W3C XSL Working Group
   jointly published today a Candidate Recommendation of "XQuery and
   XPath Full Text 1.0." This document defines the syntax and formal
   semantics of XQuery and XPath Full Text 1.0 which is a language that
   extends XQuery 1.0 [XQuery 1.0: An XML Query Language] and XPath 2.0
   [XML Path Language (XPath) 2.0] with full-text search capabilities.
   Implementors are encouraged to run the groups' test suite and report
   their results. The Groups also published Working Drafts of " XQuery
   and XPath Full Text 1.0 Requirements" and "Use Cases." Learn more
   about the XML Activity.

State Chart XML (SCXML) Working Draft Published
   The Voice Browser Working Group has published an updated Working
   Draft of "State Chart XML (SCXML): State Machine Notation for
   Control Abstraction." SCXML is an execution environment based on
   UML Harel State Tables and "CCXML." The main differences from the
   previous draft are (1) the modularization of the language, (2) the
   introduction of profiles and (3) a revision of the algorithm for
   document interpretation; the document as a whole has changed
   significantly and the group welcomes review. Learn more about the
   Voice Browser Activity.

Last Call: Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) Snapshot 2007
   The Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) Working Group has published the
   Last Call Working Draft of "Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) Snapshot
   2007." This document collects together into one definition all the
   specifications that together form the current state of Cascading
   Style Sheets (CSS). The primary audience is CSS implementors, not
   CSS authors, as this definition includes modules by specification
   stability, not Web browser adoption rate. Comments are welcome
   through 09 June. Learn more about the Style Activity.

"Web Accessibility for Older Users: A Literature Review"; Comments
Welcome on First Public Draft
   The Web Accessibility Initiative (WAI) Education and Outreach
   Working Group Working Group (EOWG) has published "Web Accessibility
   for Older Users: A Literature Review" as a First Public Working
   Draft. The document includes reviews and analysis of guidelines and
   articles covering the requirements of people with Web accessibility
   needs related to ageing. This literature review will inform WAI
   efforts to promote accessibility solutions for older Web users and
   potentially to develop profiles or extensions to WAI guidelines. The
   literature review is a deliverable of the WAI-AGE Project (Ageing
   Education and Harmonisation). See the call for review and
   participation for an introduction to the project and an invitation
   to contribute to the literature review and other WAI-AGE work; and
   about the Web Accessibility Initiative.

Last Call: CURIE Syntax 1.0
   The XHTML2 Working Group has published the Last Call Working Draft
   of "CURIE Syntax 1.0," which outlines a syntax for expressing URIs
   in a generic, abbreviated syntax ("Compact URI"). The specification
   targets language designers who need a mechanism to permit the use of
   extensible value collections. Any language designer considering the
   use of QNames in attribute values should consider instead using
   CURIEs, since CURIEs are designed for this purpose, while QNames are
   not. Comments are welcome through 10 June. Learn more about the HTML
   Activity.

W3C Invites Implementations of Web Content Accessibility Guidelines
(WCAG) 2.0 (Candidate Recommendation)
   The Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) Working Group has
   released "Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 2.0" as a Candidate
   Recommendation, and published updated Working Drafts of
   "Understanding WCAG 2.0" and "Techniques for WCAG 2.0," along with
   How to Meet WCAG 2.0 and Comparison of WCAG 1.0 Checkpoints to WCAG
   2.0. WCAG defines how to make Web sites, Web applications, and other
   Web content accessible to people with disabilities. Working closely
   with Web developers, the WCAG Working Group expects to receive
   initial implementations by 30 June 2008 and to show evidence of
   meeting the "exit criteria" by 31 August 2008. Read the press
   release, invitation to implement, Overview of WCAG 2.0 Documents,
   and about the Web Accessibility Initiative.

Canonical XML Version 1.1 Is a W3C Recommendation
   The XML Core Working Group has published the W3C Recommendation of
   "Canonical XML Version 1.1." Canonical XML Version 1.1 is a
   revision to Canonical XML Version 1.0 to address issues related to
   inheritance of attributes in the XML namespace when canonicalizing
   document subsets, including the requirement not to inherit xml:id,
   and to treat xml:base URI path processing properly. Canonical XML
   Version 1.1 is applicable to XML 1.0 and defined in terms of the
   XPath 1.0 data model. It is not defined for XML 1.1. As a
   Recommendation, this is a stable document and may be used as
   reference material or cited from another document. Learn more about
   the Extensible Markup Language (XML) Activity.

XProc: An XML Pipeline Language Draft Published
   The XML Processing Model Working Group has published a Working Draft
   of "XProc: An XML Pipeline Language." This specification describes
   the syntax and semantics of XProc: An XML Pipeline Language, a
   language for describing operations to be performed on XML documents.
   Pipelines are made up of simple steps which perform atomic
   operations on XML documents and constructs similar to conditionals,
   iteration, and exception handlers, which control which steps are
   executed. The status section of the document lists the most
   important changes since the previous draft. Learn more about the
   Extensible Markup Language (XML) Activity.

Product Modelling Incubator Group to Identify Basic Ontology for
Product Modelling
   W3C is pleased to announce the creation of the Product Modelling
   Incubator Group, sponsored by W3C Members TNO, POSC-Caesar
   Association, and Fraunhofer. Per the charter, the SWOP and S-TEN
   projects, with the POSC Caesar Association, believe that it is
   possible to define a small core of basic classes and properties for
   product modelling. This "product core" could be the basis of the
   ontologies defined by the two projects, and for many other
   application ontologies. This core could help the development of Web
   ontologies derived from existing international standards, such as
   IFC, STEP and ISO 15926. The XG has been proposed to work on this
   core set. Read more about the Incubator Activity, an initiative to
   foster development of emerging Web-related technologies. Incubator
   Activity work is not on the W3C standards track.
