Dear Advisory Committee Representative,
[This announcement will be forwarded to W3C group chairs]

W3C is pleased to announce the recharter of the Media and Entertainment
Interest Group:
    https://www.w3.org/2025/12/me-charter-2025.html

The group is chartered through 31 December 2027.

The mission of the Media and Entertainment Interest Group is to provide
a forum for media-related technical discussions to track progress of
media features on the Web within W3C groups and use of Web technologies
by external organizations, and to identify use cases and requirements
that existing and/or new specifications need to meet to achieve improved
support for media services on the Web.

Please use the following form to have your organization join the group.
The form will also instruct you how to nominate participants:
    https://www.w3.org/groups/ig/me/join/

Please consider diversity when proposing people to participate in W3C
groups. Representation from a wider group of people, especially people
from under-represented groups, is vital for creating web standards that
meet the needs of the wider web community.

Current participants will remain in this group and are not required to
re-join.

The group chairs are Chris Needham (BBC), Wolfgang Schildbach (Dolby
Laboratories), Song Xu (China Mobile). The Staff Contact is Ruoxi Ran
(Roy) <ran at w3.org> for a total of 0.1 FTE.

We would like to express our most sincere thanks to departing co-Chairs
Tatsuya Igarashi (Sony) and Christopher Lorenzo (W3C Invited Expert) for
their contributions to the Interest Group over the years!

More information about the group can be found on the group home page:

Results of Charter Call for Review

We called for charter review on 21 Oct 2025:
  https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Member/w3c-ac-members/2025OctDec/0018.html

Thanks to the 20 Members who provided input:
  https://www.w3.org/wbs/33280/me-charter-2025/results/

All respondents indicated support for the proposed charter, except for
two abstentions. There were no objections. Three suggestions were
received to add the Media Content Metadata JP Community Group to the
coordination list and call out the need to ensure timely updates to
client runtimes to avoid fragmentation of the web platform. The
suggestions were integrated in the proposed charter. The AVS Industry
Alliance was also added to the Coordination section.
