[all] The ASF as a W3C member (WAS: [scxml] compliance with SCXML Working Draft)

FWIW, I'd like to see this happen as well. I believe Commons SCXML is
an example where we're beginning to see useful interactions between
the ASF and the W3C, and IMO, the ASF can only gain by being a W3C
member.

If we stare at the W3C member list ...

http://www.w3.org/Consortium/Member/List

... we see members such as:

 * OASIS
 * Mozilla

and it is probably time to float this thought at the ASF.

So, a couple of questions:

 * Anyone else has any views on this?
 * What would be the appropriate ASF forum to begin this conversation?

Just testing the waters ;-) Will go to community@ in a day or two
then, and might ping general@xml about the thread on community@ since
I tend to agree to an extent with Paul (and all of them might not be
on community@)

At this end, I'd suggest starting with community@a.o, since that covers
people on all projects. Certainly commons-dev isn't the right place for a
broad audience. ;-)

Cool, looks like this isn't the first time someone thought about this
(as I was fully expecting). Need to find the right people at either
end to see if we can make any further progress ...

Remembered there was a discussion about membership of the w3c. A quick search gave me only this 
though : http://www.apache.org/foundation/records/minutes/2001/board_minutes_2001_10_17.txt

Mvgr,

Sounds good, thanks. Will move this to general@xml when I get a chance.

True, though the members only sections interest me, and may possibly
be of interest to others as well. I'll ask.

You definitely need to send such a wish to the general xml list at least.
Note also much w3c interaction can be done without membership...
