I found it!
On this very mail server in fact, is a treasuretrove of tidbits about the
coming WWWO.
http://info.cern.ch/hypertext/WWW/Organization/Consortium/W3OSignature.html
It includes the initial press release and a prospectus/working notes on W3O.
In response to your second question:
W3O will help hammer out the HTML3.0 standards, as well as the other
protocols and common code libraries in use on the web.
If I remember: HTML 1.0 was the initial CERN stuff
HTML 2.0 is whatever Mosaic implements (sort of)
HTML 3.0 is what used to be HTML+ (i.e: big and far off)
