The main activities are embedded into the WEB API activity, where the XMLHttpRequest Object is the starting point of research. In fact you could follow the acual status of the draft at http://dev.w3.org/cvsweb/2006/webapi/XMLHttpRequest/

This document is a simple restatement of the common properties of all the implementations
of this principal javascript object for AJAX. Perhaps not new but worth to read, because at the end (which is typically defined by the publication of a W3 recommendation) the XMLHttpRequest is a W3 Standard, Such standards always had and have string influence on further developments.

Another small activity it the aval project, a receipt to embed XML and CSS validation services into the validated page itself. Perhaps a nice POC (proof of concept) for the guys at W3C itself…

A nice introduction of the W3C point of view (?!?) is the talk Web of applications presented by Dave Raggett
at Google, Mountain View, 1st February 2006. definitly worth to read (and it is nicely compiled using the slidy slide generator tool). Check it out !

Oh, forgot to mention another AJAX at w3.org. It is the Tabulator, a semantic web browser, loading and browsing RDF informations. It was built by Tim Berner Lee, the inventor of HTML and web browser, one of the most influental person in the web itself This fact alone makes it worth to look at this prototype…. Wonder if somebody is going to extend it.

Tim Berner Lee also wrote a short post on Tabluator which explains the context.

But first I want to have a look at the semantic web. There is a lot of activity around it. But it is my impression, that still there is no clear roadmap to reach the big picture: connected meta data everywhere, meaningful, nonambigous, with a real world interpretation. But this is the point! How could the current architecture (using rdf, owl and higher level structures) garantue the trustful usage of information and meta information? The situation can be compared to the WIKI principle, based on basic democratic principles of the web: Everybody can say something, but perhaps somebody other says something different. In the WIKI world this ansatz is very succesful, but could it be sucessful for building a real semantic web? I am quite pesimistic about it….
