@w3c invites implementations of "Decentralized Identifiers (DIDs) v1.1". DIDs enable verifiable digital #identity without relying on central authorities. #timetoimplement
▶️ https://www.w3.org/TR/did-1.1/

A DID is a simple text string consisting of three parts: 1) the 'did' URI scheme identifier, 2) the identifier for the DID method and 3) the DID method-specific identifier.

Web Authentication defines an #API for creating and using securely and smoothly public key-based credentials in Web #browsers.
This 3rd level adds client features that make passkeys easier to use and help transition from passwords via conditional mediation (learn more at https://passkeys.dev). It also enables cross-origin iframe support for use cases like federated identity and payments #WebAuthn

Web Fonts let pages use fonts on demand without local installation. The @w3c Incremental Font Transfer (IFT) speeds up #font loading and cuts data use by sending only needed parts in multiple requests #timetoimplement
▶️ https://www.w3.org/TR/IFT/

IFT avoids layout issues (ligatures, etc.), enabling efficient, fine-grained font loading, even for complex scripts like Indic or Arabic.

@w3c has released "Pointer Events Level 3" as #CandidateRecommendation #timetoimplement
▶️ https://www.w3.org/TR/pointerevents3/

This specification aims to simplify development across diverse input devices like mouse, pen, and touchscreens. Along with expanded #CSS touch-action values, new features include altitudeAngle and azimuthAngle properties for detailed stylus input.

The @w3c Compute Pressure #API specification defines a set of pressure states (e.g. high CPU load) delivered to a #WebApp to signal when adaptation of the workload is appropriate to ensure consistent quality of service. #timetoimplement
▶️ https://www.w3.org/TR/compute-pressure/

The document defines 3 concepts: processing units (such as the CPU), supported sources (such as #GPU), sampling and reporting rates.

Key usage scenarios are described in this explainer: https://github.com/w3c/compute-pressure#readme

The @w3c Timed Text #WorkingGroup invites implementations of the "Dubbing and Audio Description Profiles of TTML2 (DAPT)" specification for exchanging timed text content in #dubbing and #audio description workflows #timetoimplement

▶️ https://www.w3.org/TR/dapt/

DAPT enables scripting, voicing, and mixing for dubbing and audio descriptions, supporting video #localization and #accessibility.

@w3c invites implementations of Controlled Identifiers (CIDs) v1.0

CIDs generalizes the mechanism used to prove control of an identifier in Decentralized Identifiers (#DID), making it also applicable to non-decentralized identifiers and systems (e.g. HTTPS URLs). They can be used with Verifiable Credentials, e.g. to authenticate the subject of such a credential
