I’m on the W3C’s Advisory Board (which, as its title suggests, gives advice to the W3C Team on various matters, as well as proposing edits to the Process Document for W3C). We hold a few meetings each year, mostly timed to coincide with larger W3C meetings such as the Technical Plenary week, or the Advisory Committee meetings. This week’s meeting was two days, just for us, and hosted by Boeing (thanks to Ann Bassetti, who put in an immense amount of work to find the right facility!). And Ann managed to get us on the last factory tour that was allowed to go on the factory floor. Future tours will only be allowed to watch from the mezzanine level.
Field Trip to Boeing
The W3C Advisory Board meeting was at Boeing this week. Ann Bassetti managed to get us in for a factory tour at Renton (near Seattle), which was a lot of fun as well as being informative.
