About the W3C Q&A Weblog
This weblog has been created for information and discussions between W3C and the Web community at large, as an informal companion to the news items on the W3C homepage. Announcements, issues on Web standards and educational materials among other topics will be published on this weblog.
Individual blog entries, posted by W3C Staff or Working-Group participants, generally do not represent the consensus of the W3C, but express individual opinions of the respective author.
