OtherW3C Activities
This section gives an overview of some other important and interesting W3C activities.
The Web Accessibility Initiative (WAI)
WAI defines guidelines on how to make Web content more accessible to people with disabilities.
WAI strives toward the goal of "Web accessibility for all" through technologies, guidelines, tools, education, research, and development projects.
Mathematical Markup Language (MathML)
MathML is an XML standard for describing mathematical notation.
The goal of MathML is to enable mathematics to be served, received, and processed on the Web, just as HTML enables this for text.
Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG)
