Liam,

I would like to start a community group on xml hypermedia affordances.  How would I go about that?

Thanks
Peter

These days it's fairly easy to start a W3C community group; in addition
(as you know, of course) a small organization, a large organization of
small, large or assorted-sized people, and individuals do all have
roughly equal voice within W3C Working Groups.

I say roughly because implementors and users tend to get the most
influence, but that's not always a bad thing :-)
