Dear all,
After the last Dagstuhl Seminar, we created a Community Group (CG) at the W3C for Autonomous Agents on the Web (WebAgents): https://www.w3.org/community/webagents/
This mail summarizes a few updates from the WebAgents CG. We invite everyone to join this group, please visit the above link for more information.
The W3C organizes its annual TPAC event on Sept. 11-15 as a hybrid event (Seville, Spain & online). The WebAgents CG received two meeting slots in the TPAC agenda for Sept. 11:
- we will use the first slot for a face-to-face kick-off of the WebAgents CG
- we will use the second slot for a joint meeting with the Web of Things CG / Working Group
- we are also discussing the possibility of organizing a breakout session with the Solid CG on Sept. 13

The WebAgents CG will have its first online introduction meeting this Monday (July 10) from 5 P.M. CET — and all members are invited to join:

Dear all,
Earlier this week, the W3C Autonomous Agents on the Web (WebAgents) Community Group was created — thanks to Fabien Gandon and Pierre-Antoine Champin for moving things forward!
This is an initiative that came out of the Dagstuhl Seminars 21072 and 23081. We invite everyone to join this community group — and we will slowly ramp up the activity over the next month or so: https://www.w3.org/community/webagents/
Another initiative that came out of the recent Dagstuhl Seminar 23081 is what we call "The Hitchhiker's Guide to Engineering Web-based Multi-Agent Systems": a sort of tutorial that would equip the reader with all the background knowledge required to enter a principled discussion on the engineering of Web-based Multi-Agent Systems. This initiative is similar to the one that came out of the Dagstuhl Seminar 18371 on Knowledge Graphs<https://www.dagstuhl.de/18371> — and later turned into the Knowledge Graphs book: https://kgbook.org/
The Hitchhiker’s Guide is meant to provide an integrated view across topics on the Web Architecture and the Web of Things, Semantic Web and Linked Data, and Autonomous Agents and Multi-Agent Systems. For more details, please refer to the slides we used to build the discussion in Dagstuhl: https://bit.ly/the-hitchhikers-guide-slides
The guide will be co-edited by Olivier Boissier, Fabien Gandon, Alessandro Ricci, Munindar P. Singh, and me. If you would like to contribute to the Hitchhiker's Guide, we invite you to add your name to this document under the parts or chapters that would interest you the most — and any other recommendations are welcomed as well: https://bit.ly/the-hitchhikers-guide
Best wishes,
Andrei
