Some notes about this listing:

This table contains all XML-related Member Submission/Notes published in the last year.

The idea behind a Member Submission is to provide a public forum from which member companies can propose technology or other ideas for consideration by the W3C. (See also The Standards List) There are over 300 organizations that are currently W3C members.

It is important to clarify that any documents published from a member's submission package will be published as W3C Notes. However, members do not submit "Notes", but rather, members make "Submission Requests" from which an officially-"acknowledged" Submission may emerge as a "Note".

Submission packages will sometimes be "rejected" if Tim Berners-Lee, Director of the W3C, decides that the material contained in the Submission Request falls under the jurisdiction of an existing Working Group, or if the Director feels that the ideas expressed in the request are "poor, may harm the Web, or run counter to the W3C Mission in some way. (The W3C "mission" being "to lead the evolution of the Web".)

Another reason that the material contained in a Member's Submission Request may not be "formally acknowledged" is if the Director feels that the topics addressed in the request lie outside the scope of the W3C's activities.

A Submission Request must also address whether or not the participating member companies consider the technical information contained in the Request proprietary or under public domain, as well as the submitting member companies' official stance on any intellectual property issues.
