Suggestions for Tuesday Morning AC Meeting

The Tuesday morning of the AC Meeting is optional. It is intended for informal discussion among Chairs, AC, TAG, AB, Offices, and Team.

[Breakout session] How to Effectively "listen" to activity

  • Proposed by: Al Villarica (Smart Communications) & Alan Bird (W3C and Smart's MRM)
  • Summary: W3C has a lot of different activities going on at any given point in time. For a member with a smaller amount of resource it's a challenge to find out what's going on that isn't on our current "radar". We're assuming that members that have been with W3C for a longer period of time may have some "best practices" they could share to help newer, smaller members.
  • Type: Discussion
  • Goals: Open discussion to provide members with ideas they can implement to gain more value from their W3C Membership by being aware of areas that might be in their organizations longer term objectives.
  • Interested: Rebecca Hauck, Masataka Yakura

We are also interested in finding new ways to promote these new services through the members' networks of developers and customers.
  • Interested: AlanB, JérômeC

Notes on breakout rooms
