<h2 id="principles">Principles Guiding Invitations and Periodic Review</h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
<a href="http://www.w3.org/2005/10/Process-20051014/groups.html#invited-expert-wg">Section
|
|
6.2.1.3 of the W3C Process Document</a> explains that W3C sometimes invites
|
|
an individual with particular expertise to become a Invited Expert in a
|
|
Group. The Team generally follows these principles when considering an
|
|
application:</p>
|
|
<ol class="show_items"><li>Invited expert status is normally granted to either independent
|
|
individuals (i.e., individuals not significantly affiliated with business
|
|
interests), or to academics affiliated with institutions of higher
|
|
learning.</li><li>Invited expert status is not normally granted to individuals employed
|
|
by organizations which have significant business interest in results from
|
|
W3C. This might even include some not-for-profit organizations. Such
|
|
organizations SHOULD join W3C.</li><li>Under almost no circumstances will invited expert status be granted to
|
|
an individual whose support comes from an financially solvent
|
|
organization which has terminated its W3C membership.</li><li>If the case is made that granting invited expert status to an
|
|
individual supported by a "membership candidate" organization would
|
|
enhance the chances that organization would join W3C, then a provisional
|
|
3-month or 6-month invitation might well be issued. For an individual
|
|
supported by a "membership candidate"organization, it is expected that
|
|
6-month invitation will remain the default option and 3-month should only
|
|
be used for exceptional cases or as an extension option to a previously
|
|
agreed 6-month invitation.</li></ol>
|
|
<p>The status of all Invited Experts is reviewed at least once a year, and
|
|
may be reviewed more frequently, to ensure that information supplied on their
|
|
application is still current (for instance organizational affiliation,
|
|
participation commitment, etc.).</p>
|
|
<h2 id="memaccess">Member Access to W3C Site</h2>
|
|
<p>Only after an individual has accepted an invitation from the Team to
|
|
participate in a Working Group as an invited expert, and only for groups where Member access is required, is that individual
|
|
granted “Member access” to the W3C Web site.</p>
