Workshops and Symposia</h2>

The Team organizes <dfn id="EventsW" export>Workshops</dfn>
and <dfn id="EventsS" export lt="Symposium | Symposia">Symposia</dfn>
to promote early involvement in the development of W3C activities
from Members and the public.

The goal of a Workshop is usually
either to convene experts and other interested parties for an exchange of ideas
about a technology or policy,
or to address the pressing concerns of W3C Members.
Organizers of the first type of Workshop
<em class="rfc2119">may</em> solicit position papers for the Workshop program
and <em class="rfc2119">may</em> use those papers
to choose attendees and/or presenters.

The goal of a Symposium is usually
to educate interested parties about a particular subject.

The Call for Participation in a Workshop or Symposium
<em class="rfc2119">may</em> indicate participation requirements or limits,
and expected deliverables
(e.g., reports and [=minutes=]).
Organization of an event does not guarantee
further investment by W3C in a particular topic,
but <em class="rfc2119">may</em> lead to proposals for new activities or groups.

Workshops and Symposia generally last one to three days.
If a Workshop is being organized to address the pressing concerns of Members,
the Team <em class="rfc2119">must</em> issue the Call for Participation
no later than <span class="time-interval">six weeks</span>
prior to the Workshop's scheduled start date.
For other Workshops and Symposia,
the Team <em class="rfc2119">must</em> issue a Call for Participation
no later than <span class="time-interval">eight weeks</span>
prior to the meeting's scheduled start date.
This helps ensure that speakers and authors
have adequate time to prepare position papers and talks.
