Proposed Group: Spec Editors Community Group
The Spec Editors Community Group has been proposed by Marcos Caceres:
The Spec Editors Community Group aims to be an inclusive space where spec editors, and those wanting to become spec editors, can learn from each other.
The Spec Ed CG focuses on the practice (the art?) of writing technical specifications across the Web ecosystem (W3C, WHATWG, ECMA, IETF, etc.). By looking across the ecosystem, we hope to improve our specification development practices at the W3C.
As part of this CG, we hope to run hands-on virtual tutorial sessions that will cover:
* spec writing: writing algorithms, types of statements.
* tooling: ReSpec and Bikeshed.
* testing: Web Platform Tests.
* How review specs: what to look for, commenting on pull requests.
* leveraging fundamental technologies: WebIDL, Infra standard, HTML, etc.
* Using Github effectively for spec development: labels, milestones, managing your community.
* More things! Let us know…
You are invited to support the creation of this group. Once the group has a total of five supporters, it will be launched and people can join to begin work. In order to support the group, you will need a W3C account.
Once launched, the group will no longer be listed as “proposed”; it will be in the list of current groups.
If you believe that there is an issue with this group that requires the attention of the W3C staff, please send us email on site-comments@w3.org
Thank you,
W3C Community Development Team
