The Vision for W3C has been officially published as a ratified W3C Statement: https://www.w3.org/TR/2025/STMT-w3c-vision-20250729/ As one of the editors, along with Chris Wilson (@cwilso.com @cdub@mastodon.social), I’m both proud of this multi-year W3C Advisory Board (AB) effort, and grateful to everyone who contributed and gave feedback that helped improve the document. Writing down and openly publishing our collective values and principles is an important step forward for W3C. We now have a shared reference to both guide our priorities and cite to help resolve differences in opinion (rather than having to appeal to authority). The AB (@w3.org/wiki/AB @ab@w3c.social) has prioritized work on the Vision project for many years (https://www.w3.org/wiki/AB/Vision), and personally, co-leading this project during my time on the AB has been inspiring, challenging, and a source of many lessons learned. Lots more to share on all that. For now, happy to take a moment to celebrate this milestone. #w3cVision #VisionForW3C #WorldWideWeb #W3C (@w3.org @w3c@w3c.social) #w3cAB #Vision #VisionTF #openWeb #webStandards Previously: * https://tantek.com/2025/100/t1/vision-for-w3c-please-vote More posts: * https://www.w3.org/news/2025/vision-for-w3c-is-a-w3c-statement/ * https://www.w3.org/blog/2025/vision-for-w3c-a-manifesto-for-our-operations-and-decision-making/
