<p>An individual becomes an Invited Expert in a group as follows:</p>
<ul class="show_items"><li>The Chair and Team Contact hold preliminary discussions with the
individual.</li><li>The individual provides the <a href="http://www.w3.org/2005/10/Process-20051014/groups.html#inv-expert-info">information
required of an Invited Expert</a> as follows:
<ul><li>If you do not already have a W3C Access Account login and password
(<a href="http://www.w3.org/Help/Account/MailPassword/">check if there is
an account associated with your address</a>), complete the <a href="http://www.w3.org/Help/Account/Request/Public">Public Access Request
Form</a>.</li><li>After you receive your W3C login name and password, complete the <a href="http://www.w3.org/2002/09/wbs/1/ieapp/">W3C Invited Expert
Application</a> (which refers to the <a href="http://www.w3.org/Consortium/Legal/collaborators-agreement">Invited
Expert and Collaborators Agreement</a>). </li></ul>
</li><li>The Team Contact reviews the request. If participation in the Group
requires access to the W3C Member Web site,
review of the application by W3C Management is required,
following the <a href="http://www.w3.org/2004/02/invited_expert">internal
process regarding Invited Experts</a> (<em>Team-only</em>).</li><li>If the application is approved, the Team invites the individual to
complete the procedure of formally joining the Group.</li></ul>
<h2 id="principles">Principles Guiding Invitations and Periodic Review</h2>
<p>
<a href="http://www.w3.org/2005/10/Process-20051014/groups.html#invited-expert-wg">Section
6.2.1.3 of the W3C Process Document</a> explains that W3C sometimes invites
an individual with particular expertise to become a Invited Expert in a
Group. The Team generally follows these principles when considering an
application:</p>
<ol class="show_items"><li>Invited expert status is normally granted to either independent
individuals (i.e., individuals not significantly affiliated with business
interests), or to academics affiliated with institutions of higher
learning.</li><li>Invited expert status is not normally granted to individuals employed
by organizations which have significant business interest in results from
W3C. This might even include some not-for-profit organizations. Such
organizations SHOULD join W3C.</li><li>Under almost no circumstances will invited expert status be granted to
an individual whose support comes from an financially solvent
organization which has terminated its W3C membership.</li><li>If the case is made that granting invited expert status to an
individual supported by a "membership candidate" organization would
enhance the chances that organization would join W3C, then a provisional
3-month or 6-month invitation might well be issued. For an individual
supported by a "membership candidate"organization, it is expected that
6-month invitation will remain the default option and 3-month should only
be used for exceptional cases or as an extension option to a previously
agreed 6-month invitation.</li></ol>
<p>The status of all Invited Experts is reviewed at least once a year, and
may be reviewed more frequently, to ensure that information supplied on their
application is still current (for instance organizational affiliation,
participation commitment, etc.).</p>
<h2 id="memaccess">Member Access to W3C Site</h2>
<p>Only after an individual has accepted an invitation from the Team to
participate in a Working Group as an invited expert, and only for groups where Member access is required, is that individual
granted “Member access” to the W3C Web site.</p>
