Call for Participation in Interledger Payments Community Group

The Interledger Payments Community Group has been launched:

The primary goal of the Interledger Payments Community Group is connecting the many payment networks (ledgers) around the world via the Web. The group’s vision is an open, universal payment scheme built on Web standards that allows any payer to pay any payee regardless of the payer’s choice of payment instrument or the payee’s account.

In order to join the group, you will need a W3C account. Please note, however, that W3C Membership is not required to join a Community Group.

This is a community initiative. This group was originally proposed on 2015-10-06 by Adrian Hope-Bailie. The following people supported its creation: Adrian Hope-Bailie, Ian Jacobs, Manu Sporny, Dave Longley, Michael Petychakis, Evan Schwartz. W3C’s hosting of this group does not imply endorsement of the activities.

The group must now choose a chair. Read more about how to get started in a new group and good practice for running a group.

We invite you to share news of this new group in social media and other channels.

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

Thank you,
W3C Community Development Team
