Hi Everyone<\/p>\n
Perhaps you’ve noticed Coremob has been on an extended break, but now it’s time to get back to work!<\/p>\n
Despite the silence, I hope you’ve noticed the recent announcement of the formation for the Web and Mobile Interest Group. Well just in case you hadn’t spotted that, on 20th August W3C announced<\/a> that it had been formed. Hopefully you’ll recall the discussions on this list about the creation of that group and what it should do. Well, it has taken a little time, but the resulting charter<\/a> has been agreed and the brand new IG has a home page<\/a>.<\/p>\n Now, since I am co-chair of that group it goes without saying really that I encourage you to join it! I do appreciate that the home page is a little bare at the moment, but I hope you will bear with me and my wonderful co-chairs get some substance around this and with the incomparable support of Dom I’m sure that over the next couple of weeks, we will!<\/p>\n Specifically then, a couple of actions and a question.<\/p>\n If your organisation is a W3C member ask your AC rep to join the group and enrol you as a member.<\/p>\n If you don’t have a W3C affiliation then sign up to the public mailing list<\/a>, on which all work will be carried out. Join the discussion and participate in the work of the group, please.<\/p>\n Finally, the question. Given little traffic on this list, the dormancy of the CG and the explicit intention of the W&M IG to pursue the work of Coremob I think it is time to archive Coremob. Objections?<\/p>\n So, in summary, hurry up and join in the work of the Web and Mobile Interest Group. The Web site may as yet be a little dull, the name of the group isn’t that catchy, yet (but what about WAM!) but with your participation all that will happen (I mean as well as helping shape a future in which the Web is the pre-eminent mechanism for development of cross-platform products and services!)<\/p>\n thanks<\/p>\n Jo<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Hi Everyone Perhaps you’ve noticed Coremob has been on an extended break, but now it’s time to get back to work!
