CHI 2002 Informal Sig - W3C usability public working group There is a proposal to form a User Interest Group within the W3C to address usability issues. The proposal includes three possible areas for the scope of work of this interest group: - review the usability of deliverables of other W3C groups - explore barriers to usability of the Web and produce potential solutions - exchange information about web-usability activities Any CHI attendees who are interested (you need not be a member of the W3C - or working for an organization that is a member of the W3C) are welcome to attend the informal SIG. I will sign up for a time/room as soon as possible at CHI. I will post this information on the bulletin board in the Commons at CHI - please look for it or leave me a note if you want to come and can't locate the information.
