The mission of the HTML Speech Incubator Group, part of the Incubator Activity, is to determine the feasibility of integrating speech technology in HTML5 in a way that leverages the capabilities of both speech and HTML (e.g., DOM) to provide a high-quality, browser-independent speech/multimodal experience while avoiding unnecessary standards fragmentation or overlap.

While there are no dependencies of the XG's work on that of any group other than the HTML Working Group, the XG may review or discuss the work of other related groups as needed to produce a high-quality work product. A partial list of such groups follows.
Primary participation is by email. However, conference calls and/or face-to-face meetings may be called as needed. Participants are expected to attend any such teleconferences and face-to-face meetings.
Teleconferences are expected for the first few weeks to set general directions.
All technical work in this group will be conducted on the public mailing list public-xg-htmlspeech@w3.org (archive) and at any scheduled teleconferences and face-to-face meetings. The group's Member-only list, member-xg-htmlspeech@w3.org (archive), will be used only as necessary for Administrative tasks.
Information about the group (deliverables, participants, face-to-face meetings, teleconferences, etc.) is available from the HTML Speech Incubator Group home page.
As explained in the Process Document (section 3.3), this group will seek to make decisions when there is consensus. When the Chair puts a question and observes dissent, after due consideration of different opinions, the Chair should record a decision (possibly after a formal vote) and any objections, and move on.
This Incubator Group provides an opportunity to share perspectives on the topic addressed by this charter. W3C reminds Incubator Group participants of their obligation to comply with patent disclosure obligations as set out in Section 6 of the W3C Patent Policy. While the Incubator Group does not produce Recommendation-track documents, when Incubator Group participants review Recommendation-track specifications from Working Groups, the patent disclosure obligations do apply.
Incubator Groups have as a goal to produce work that can be implemented on a Royalty Free basis, as defined in the W3C Patent Policy.
For more information about disclosure obligations for this group, please see the W3C Patent Policy Implementation.
This charter for the HTML Speech Incubator Group has been created according to the Incubator Group Procedures documentation. In the event of a conflict between this document or the provisions of any charter and the W3C Process, the W3C Process shall take precedence.
