New Working Group Launch

4th June 2004 Two new working groups launched

ICRA has launched two new working groups to review key aspects of its work.

The labelling working group will be investigating alternative methods for labelling. The present PICS-based system can sometimes present logistical and technical hurdles. A more flexible system, probably based on RDF, is being sought.

In parallel, ICRA’s descriptive vocabulary, often referred to as “the ICRA questionnaire,” is under review. ICRA’s principles of creating a cross-cultural system that is as objective as possible remains a foundation stone. However, the review will consider media types other than websites delivered to desktops.

Comments are invited for both working groups.
