From W3C Wiki

This wiki is for connecting the W3C communities (Web developers, implementers, people who make the W3C specifications). W3C has a formal track for making standards specifications. The specs answer a lot of questions, but not all of them. The wiki is used by many communities such as the Open Web Platform and the Semantic Web. You might want to contribute to W3C work.

Pages here have no formal status but may have WikiConsensus. Questions & answers here may be misleading, or just plain wrong. Or, they may be useful. You are welcome to add, fix, develop and rearrange topics.

2015-01-15: Due to spam increase, W3C has limited who can edit this wiki to holders of a W3C account with Member access. You must log in with your account to edit the wiki.

  • Security, starting around March 2006, for discussion on W3C Security-related specifications and enhancements to XML-Dsig.
