Hot in web standards: September/October 2012

A lot of exciting things happened over the course of the last two months in the standards world. This column took another break last month, because yours truly had to work hard on the launch of a very promising project we had in the works for a long time – WebPlatform.org. What is it? The section on it below should answer many of your questions.

The week of 29 October to 2 November was TPAC week: W3C’s annual standards-fest where every Working Group gets together for several face-to-face meetings. Many resolutions are made during TPAC and this was no exception. I was in the CSS WG meetings, so I will cover that in this roundup and the resolutions of other WGs in the next one – after the minutes have been published. But TPAC is not all work and no play – standards geeks sure know how to party and we put that knowledge to good use!
