About TPAC

The W3C annual conference is an important rendez-vous for the Web community. During that week, a number of W3C Working and Interest Groups gather, network, and try to resolve challenging technical or social issues. This well-attended and popular week of meetings is an important means for W3C to coordinate solutions to technical issues that transcend group borders. Breakout sessions and most meetings records are public.
