Some Ways to Contribute Ideas for New Work

W3C encourages people to propose new ideas for the Web. Some of the mechanisms set up to foster these ideas include:

• Community and Business Groups
• W3C Workshops
• Member Submissions

Work in Scope for an Existing Group

• When new work falls within the scope of an existing group (e.g., as specified by a Working Group Charter), a group participant may contribute the work directly to the group.
