Hello,

With this charter review notice, the W3C Team initiates refinement for a 
draft Immersive Web Working Group charter:
     https://w3c.github.io/charter-drafts/2026/iwwg-charter.html

The mission of the Immersive Web Working Group is to help bring 
high-performance Virtual Reality (VR) and Augmented Reality (AR) 
(collectively known as XR) to the open Web via APIs to interact with XR 
devices and sensors in browsers.

The draft new charter will add WebXR/WebGPU Binding Module specification 
as a new normative deliverable.
     https://github.com/w3c/charter-drafts/pull/831/changes/a6252eb

We encourage early discussion of this draft charter in this public forum:
     https://github.com/w3c/strategy/issues/564

W3C Members may discuss on the member-confidential mailing list 
<w3c-ac-forum@w3.org>.

Section 4.2 of the Process Document [1] describes activities during 
charter refinement and the role of the Chartering Facilitator to seek 
consensus among those who provide feedback about the charter.

The W3C Team estimates that this charter refinement will last until 
approximately 2026-09-07.

If you should have any questions or need further information, please 
feel free to contact the Chartering Facilitator, Atsushi Shimono 
<atsushi@w3.org>.

More information about the group can be found on its group page [2], 
including information about group Chairs, Staff Contact, and 
instructions for joining the group.

This announcement follows section 4.1 of the Process Document:
   https://www.w3.org/policies/process/20250818/#charter-initiation

Xueyuan Jia, Manager, Member Communications
