New WebRTC WG Charter

The new charter for the WebRTC Working Group has been approved. Current members will need to re-join, from the WebRTC WG mail list…

Hi all,

Great news, the new W3C WebRTC Working Group charter [1] has been officially approved by the W3C Director [2].

The revised charter adds a deliverable for the next version of WebRTC, has an updated list of deliverables based on the work started under the previous charter, clarifies its decision policy, and extends the group
until March 2018.

The charter of this Working Group includes a new deliverable that require W3C Patent Policy licensing commitments from all Participants.

Consequently, all Participants must join or re-join the group, which involves agreeing to participate under the terms of the revised charter and the W3C Patent Policy. Current Participants may continue to attend meetings (teleconferences and face-to-face meetings) for 45 days after this announcement, even if they have not yet re-joined the group. After 45 days (ie. September 10, 2015), ongoing participation (including meeting attendance and voting) is only permitted for those who have re-joined the group.

Use this form to (re)join:

Instructions to join the group are available at:

Thanks,
Vivien on behalf of the WebRTC WG Chairs and Staff contacts
