But an incubator group has not been started from what I can see on the W3C site. I've asked several times about this without a response. I cannot stress enough the importance of carrying on this conversation inside an XG. I've seen a charter from Kristian Sons, but no other XG related activity. Has a chair been selected? Do you have the 3 W3C Members required to start an XG?

Commencing this effort in an XG gives it visibility to the W3C membership, which can lend expertise in integrating this work into the rest of the W3C activities. It also gives you a path to the W3D Recommendation Track, which is where proposals become standards.
