w3c goes south
...so to speak. The Australian W3C office has moved to the CSIRO in Canberra. I'm slightly ashamed to admit that the office used to be at the DSTC in Brisbane and I'd forgotten.
- CSIRO to help develop web standards. 07/10/2005. ABC News Online:
The CSIRO has won a bid to play a central role in setting standards for the World Wide Web.
Really? A central role? Here's me thinking it was just hosting a W3C office ;) Sounds like someone at the Abie forgot to remove some adjectives from a press release (Journo joke: easiest way to write a very short article? Remove the superlatives from the press release). - Archive of W3C News in 2005 | W3C Office Opens in Australia. That's a really poor headline - it implies there hasn't been an office until now.
