About the W3C Blog
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.

Quality Assurance at W3C
This page used to be the home page for the Quality Assurance activity at W3C, and has since been broadened in scope and audience to become the W3C Blog.
W3C continues to strive for quality, through testing and a quality process (see the QA Matrix), Quality Tools and documents.
Archives of the life of the Quality Assurance are still available: visit the home page of the QAIG, the former QAWG or its calendar.
