Leonie Watson and I attended the W3C Technical Plenary (TPAC) last week. It was a big one; including W3C’s 20th anniversary and HTML5 became a W3C Recommendation. I have collated some links and tweets capturing some of my memories of last week at W3C TPAC 2014.
HTML5 is now a W3C Recommendation.
؟Work on HTML at the W3C is over ؟
- HTML5 is a W3C Recommendation
- Ride to 5
- HTML 5.1
- HTML Modularisation
- After HTML 5 / future work

In the fight between the ‘open web platform’ & ‘personal hygiene’ @w3c, the former always wins. #tpac detritus all righticus

In all seriousness, congrats to @timberners_lee, everyone at @w3c, & all others who have helped make the Web something great to poke fun of.
