The World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) is developing a partnership between
industry and academic workers.  The aim is to promote development and standards
research in order to facilitate the realization of the full potential of the
Web.  In partnership with O'Reilly and Associates, the Consortium is producing
the World Wide Web Journal on a quarterly basis.  (cf. BKW3JIS1.RVW)
 
This issue of the Journal gets back to basics: the specifications for the Web
and its applications.  The articles are the RFCs (Requests For Comments),
Working Drafts, and reports for technical committees and subcommittees that are
pertinent to the operations of the Web.  Included are specifications and
working papers for URIs (Universal Resource Identifiers), URLs (Uniform
Resource Locators), relative URLs, HTTP (HyperText Transfer Protocol) 1.0, PEP
(the Protocol Extension Protocol), HTML (HyperText Markup Language) 2.0, file
uploads for forms, HTML tables, internationalization, PNG (Portable Network
Graphics), style sheets, rating services and systems, and label syntax.  Some
documents are the final specifications: others are still "in-progress".
