Zukunft des Projekts

In der ersten Phase des Projekts gab es eine ganze Reihe von Hindernissen und Herausforderungen, die es zu meistern galt. Davon unbeïrrt sorgte das Projekt für die größte Zahl von Übersetzungen von W3C-Spezifikationen, die es bis dahin in irgendeiner Sprache gab.

Trotzdem war allen Beteiligten klar, dass ein nicht gewinnorientiertes Projekt nicht mit dem Aufwand betrieben werden kann, der bis dahin zu verzeichnen war. Aus diesem Grund gab es für eine lange Zeit keine aktive Weiterentwicklung.

2009, rund zehn Jahre nach der ersten Idee, gab es den Neubeginn. Ohne die Beteiligung eines Verlags und ohne formale Beteiligung des W3C läuft das Projekt nun weiter. Der Name hat sich leicht zu <edition W3.de> verändert, was anzeigt, dass die Unabhängigkeit vom Consortium zeigt.

Zwischenzeitlich sind viele Übersetzungen erschienen, die nichts mit diesem Projekt zu tun haben. Sie sind verstreut im Web zu finden, natürlich über die Seite des W3C verlinkt.

Momentan sind die Ziele der <edition W3.de> kleiner gesteckt. Das Projekt möchte

Apps vs. the Web
There's an app for that, and you're the folks who are creating it. But should you design a web-based application, or an iPhone app? Each approach has pluses and minuses—not to mention legions of religiously rabid supporters. Apple promotes both approaches (they even gave the web a year-long head start before beginning to sell apps in the store), and the iPhone's Safari browser supports HTML5 and CSS3 and brags a fast JavaScript engine. Yet many companies and individuals with deep web expertise choose to create iPhone apps instead of web apps that can do the same thing. Explore both approaches and learn just about everything you'll need to know if you choose to create an iPhone app—from the lingo, to the development process, to the tricks that can smooth the path of doing business with Apple.[mehr] (Quelle: A List Apart)

Good Help is Hard to Find
Help content gets no respect. For one thing, it is content, and our horse-before-cart industry is only now beginning to seriously tackle content strategy. For another, we assume that our site is so usable, nobody will ever need the help content anyway. Typically, no one is in charge of the help content and no strategy exists to keep it up to date. On most sites, help content is hard to find, poorly written, blames the user, and turns a mildly frustrating experience into a lousy one. It's time to rethink how we approach this part of our site. Done well, help content offers tremendous potential to earn customer loyalty. By learning to plan for and create useful help content, we can turn frustrated users into our company's biggest fans.[mehr] (Quelle: A List Apart)

Kick Ass Kickoff Meetings
Too many kickoff meetings squander the busiest, most expensive people's time reiterating what everyone already knows. If every meeting is an opportunity, why waste your first one? By asking stakeholders tough questions before the kick-off, and using the meeting itself to explore ideas and build relationships, you can turn a room of mutually suspicious turf battlers into an energetic team with shared ownership of the end-product and the kind of bond that can sustain the group through the challenges ahead.[mehr] (Quelle: A List Apart)

No One Nos: Learning to Say No to Bad Ideas
You can't create what clients need when you're too busy saying yes to everything they want. As a user experience designer, it's your job to say no to bad ideas and pointless practices. But getting to no is never easy. Proven techniques that can turn vocal negatives into positive experiences for you, the client, and most importantly, the end-user include citing best practices and simple but powerful business cases; proving your point with numbers; shifting focus from what to who; using the "positive no"; and, when necessary, pricing yourself out.[mehr] (Quelle: A List Apart)

JavaScript Minification Part II
Variable naming can be a source of coding angst for humans trying to understand code. Once you’re sure that a human doesn’t need to interpret your JavaScript code, variables simply become generic placeholders for values. Nicholas C.

Prefix or Posthack
Vendor prefixes: Threat or menace? As browser support (including in IE9) encourages more of us to dive into CSS3, vendor prefixes such as -moz-border-radius and -webkit-animation may challenge our consciences, along with our patience. But while nobody particularly enjoys writing the same thing four or five times in a row, prefixes may actually accelerate the advancement and refinement of CSS. King of CSS Eric Meyer explains why.[mehr] (Quelle: A List Apart)

Supersize that Background, Please!
Background images that fill the screen thrill marketers but waste bandwidth in devices with small viewports, and suffer from cropping and alignment problems in high-res and widescreen monitors. Instead of using a single fixed background size, a better solution would be to scale the image to make it fit different window sizes. And with CSS3 backgrounds and CSS3 media queries, we can do just that. Bobby van der Sluis shows how.[mehr] (Quelle: A List Apart)

Stop Forking with CSS3
You may remember when JavaScript was a dark art. It earned that reputation because, in order to do anything with even the teensiest bit of cross-browser consistency, you had to fork your code for various versions of Netscape and IE. Today, thanks to web standards advocacy and diligent JavaScript library authors, our code is relatively fork-free. Alas, in our rush to use some of the features available in CSS3, we’ve fallen off the wagon. Enter Aaron Gustafson’s eCSStender, a JavaScript library that lets you use CSS3 properties and selectors while keeping your code fork- and hack-free.[mehr] (Quelle: A List Apart)

Taking Advantage of HTML5 and CSS3 with Modernizr
Years ago, CSS browser support was patchy and buggy, and only daring web designers used CSS for layouts. Today, CSS layouts are commonplace and every browser supports them. But the same can't be said for CSS3 and HTML5. That's where Faruk Ateş’s Modernizr comes in. This open-source JavaScript library makes it easy to support different levels of experiences, based on the capabilities of each visitor’s browser. Learn how to take advantage of everything in HTML5 and CSS3 that is implemented in some browsers, without sacrificing control over the user experience in other browsers.[mehr] (Quelle: A List Apart)
