Hi All - three threads about TPAC 2013 and WebApps' November 11-12 in
Shenzhen.
1. WebApps meeting November 11-12:
* You Must register for the meeting
<https://www.w3.org/2002/09/wbs/35125/TPAC2013/>
* WebApps meeting page
<http://www.w3.org/wiki/Webapps/November2013Meeting>. Input on the
agenda is of course welcome (but feel free to directly edit this page).
I have been thinking about setting aside some portion of Tuesday Nov 12
for test case writing so any comments on that idea are welcome (perhaps
all of Tuesday afternoon).
* WebApps' registration list
<https://www.w3.org/2002/09/wbs/35125/TPAC2013/registrants#WebApp>
2. Test the Web Forward November 9.
TTWF is hosting an event in Shenzhen on Saturday November 9.
Registration for this event isn't open yet and I will forward that
information when it is available.
Rebecca and the TTWF group welcome WebApps members to attend, especially
those that can help `newbies` write tests. I believe James Graham is
going to help with the event so I thank James in advance for his
continued efforts! If other WebApp'ers can help, please let me know.
3. Technical Plenary meeting on Wednesday November 13.
The agenda for the Technical Plenary meeting is still a WIP but is
roughly divided into two parts: fixed/predetermined agenda in the
morning and unconference style parallel breakout sessions in the afternoon:
* AM Fixed Agenda
<http://www.w3.org/wiki/TPAC2013-Planning#TPAC_Plenary_Day> - if you
have any feedback on the morning's predetermined agenda, send it to
[email protected] (and cc [email protected] if you want
Public visibility).
* PM Parallel Session - proposals for these sessions are put in the
"Session Ideas" wiki
<http://www.w3.org/wiki/TPAC2013/SessionIdeas#Suggestions_for_Wednesday_Breakouts>.
If you have a proposal, add it directly to this wiki document. My
expectation is that meeting participants will be able to propose
sessions at the meeting.
-Thanks, AB

On registration and registration fees
------------------------------------------
There is a daily registration fee. The per person, per day fee is:
* 60 USD if registration and payment completed by 18 October 2013;
* 120 USD otherwise.
As in the past, registration is a two-step process:
1) completing a registration form:
https://www.w3.org/2002/09/wbs/35125/TPAC2013/
2) using a payment system. We are using a new payment system for TPAC 2013.
Upon registration you will receive an email with payment
instructions.
NOTE: The payment system will be available shortly; you may still
register right away and you will be notified automatically once the
payment system becomes available.
For more information about registration fees (including who is not
required to pay registration fees) and the payment system, see

We plan to organize the plenary day camp-style, as we did last year.
We encourage you to propose breakout sessions in our wiki:
