is coming up fast!
Apply now for the StandICT.eu 9th Open Call: https://standict.eu/standicteu-2026-9th-open-call
Deadline is 27 June 2025
Proposed charter for the @w3c Exploration #InterestGroup: its mission would be to provide members of the W3C Community a platform to explore emerging web technologies and collaborate on shaping trends for the benefit of web users.
https://www.w3.org/2025/02/ig-exploration-proposed-charter.html
This group would serve as a complement to existing member-focused discussions and broader community dialogues (@ab-led member meetings, #w3cTPAC breakouts, etc.)
The #CSS Display Module Level 4 defines how a tree of elements generates a tree of different kinds of layout boxes under the influence of the 'display’ property: block, inline, table, etc. #FPWD #timetogiveinput https://www.w3.org/TR/css-display-4/
Feedback welcome:

New is the ‘reading-flow’ property which defines the reading order of elements in a 2D layout, improving #accessibility.

Last week @seth posted some of his thoughts on #w3cTPAC
"I had a lot of conversations with members via zoom and in person, in the hallways, during breaks and meals. While some concerns about our future and the future of the web were voiced, there is a clear expression of optimism across our community, and genuine commitment to making the web work for everyone."

"Igalia Chats: TPAC 2024 " @igalia's @bkardell and @Meyerweb on #w3cTPAC:
"...the most valuable thing actually is that I think it's, you can call it the hallway track or also there's the dinner and drinks track where things there are just even whatever, they just come up and you have an opportunity to talk to people. Sometimes it's even people that you weren't even expecting to be in the conversation and really good stuff, really good stuff happens"
