W3C Recommendations
W3C 推荐标准

The most important work done by the W3C is the development of Web specifications (called "Recommendations") that describe communication protocols (like HTML and XML) and other building blocks of the Web.
W3C最重要的工作就是发展用于描述交互式协议(如:HTML和XML)的网络规则和其他网络组件。


Each W3C Recommendation is developed by a work group consisting of members and invited experts. The group obtains its input from companies and other organizations, and creates a Working Draft and finally a Proposed Recommendation. In general the Recommendation is submitted to the W3C membership and director, for a formal approval as a W3C Recommendation.
每个W3C推荐标准都是由W3C成员和邀请的专家所开发的。该团体包括了来自于公司和其它组织的输入信息,并创建了工作样本,最终,将该协议作为推荐的标准。大致上讲,推荐的协议都要提交给W3C成员和总指挥审查,而后作为正式的W3C推荐标准公布于众。
