<ul class="show_items">
<li>The <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/2012/WD-html-data-guide-20120112/">HTML Data Guide</a> aims to help publishers and consumers of HTML data. With several syntaxes (microformats, microdata, RDFa) and vocabularies (schema.org, Dublin Core, microformat vocabularies, etc.) to choose from, it provides guidance on deciding what to choose in a way that meets the publisher's or consumer's needs.</li>
<li> The <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/2012/WD-microdata-rdf-20120112/">Microdata to RDF</a> describes processing rules that may be used to extract RDF from an HTML document containing microdata.</li>

<p>Both documents are Working Drafts, with the goal of publishing a final version as Interest Group Notes. Comments and feedbacks are welcome; please send them to the <a href="mailto:public-html-data-tf@w3.org">public-html-data-tf@w3.org</a> mailing list.</p>

      <p>The <a href="http://www.w3.org/Style/CSS/members">Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) Working Group</a> has published a Last Call Working Draft of <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/2012/WD-css3-images-20120112/">CSS Image Values and Replaced Content Module Level 3</a>. CSS is a language for describing the rendering of structured documents (such as HTML and XML) on screen, on paper, in speech, etc. This module contains the features of CSS level 3 relating to the &lt;image&gt; type and replaced elements. It includes and extends the functionality of CSS level 2, which builds on CSS level 1. The main extensions compared to level 2 are the generalization of the &lt;url&gt; type to the &lt;image&gt; type, several additions to the &#x2018;&lt;image&gt;&#x2019; type, a generic sizing algorithm for images and other replaced content in CSS, and several properties controlling the interaction of replaced elements and CSS's layout models.

This document describes how user agents should support keyboard navigation and respond to roles, states, and properties provided in Web content via WAI-ARIA. These features are used by authors creating accessible rich internet applications. Users often access the content using assistive technologies that rely on platform accessibility APIs to obtain and interact with information from the page. The WAI-ARIA User Agent Implementation Guide defines how implementations should expose content to accessibility APIs, helping to ensure that this information appears in a manner consistent with author intent.
