World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) Documents

as of 1 May 2001

The World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) calls its final technical documents recommendations rather than standards, to distinguish them from full-fledged standards issued by bodies such as the American National Standards Institute (ANSI). W3C uses an open standards process to develop its documents.
