The TAG charter describes the mission of the TAG as:

"The mission of the TAG is stewardship of the Web architecture. There are three aspects to this mission:

1. to document and build consensus around principles of Web architecture and to interpret and clarify these principles when necessary;
2. to resolve issues involving general Web architecture brought to the TAG;
3. to help coordinate cross-technology architecture developments inside and outside W3C."

A few reflective questions:

• How are we doing on each of those 3 points?
• Still relevant (mission and group)?
• What is our bigger picture?
• What are our priorities for the next year?
