Proposed Group: Openactive Community Group

The Openactive Community Group has been proposed by Nick Evans:

This group’s mission is to discuss and prepare data and API specifications which facilitate the use of open and shared data relating to sport and physical activity. We have so far used http://www.openactive.io (along with https://github.com/openactive and Google Docs) to facilitate our work, supported by the Open Data Institute, and created an initial set of specifications within our open group of organisations. We would now like to progress our group to become a W3C CG, sharing our work with the wider community. The group will base its work on existing standards as much as possible, and re-use existing terms wherever appropriate. The group will seek consensus around, and support for, these specifications which may then be brought to an appropriate Working Group to advance a specification from draft to standard. The group will seek to coordinate as appropriate with the Web Schemas Task Force of the Semantic Web Interest Group and other relevant groups within the W3C.

You are invited to support the creation of this group. Once the group has a total of five supporters, it will be launched and people can join to begin work. In order to support the group, you will need a W3C account.

Once launched, the group will no longer be listed as “proposed”; it will be in the list of current groups.

If you believe that there is an issue with this group that requires the attention of the W3C staff, please send us email on site-comments@w3.org

Thank you,
W3C Community Development Team
