There are arguments to make it a Community Group instead of an Interest Group.
Feedback would be <a href="https://github.com/w3c/charter-drafts/issues">welcome</a>.

<h2>Motivation and Background</h2>

<p>
This Group is intended to address several use cases:
The goal of Exploration Interest Group provides a platform to help W3C community
investigating emerging technology trends, analyzing their impacts on the evolution
of Web technologies, and proposing ways for W3C to collaborate shaping the trends
for the benefit of the Web users. The ways include organizing Workshops, publishing
Reports and creating topic oriented Task Forces etc., assisting the Web community
seeking innovative responses to continually strengthen the innovation of W3C and the
creativity of Web technologies.
</p>
<ul>
<li>New ideas and dimensions: a new human step may impact
the Web, e.g., "autonomous L4/L5 cars", "one continent
forking the technology stack of the Internet and the Web",
"sustainable blockchain", "6G Networks";</li>
<li>New people: a welcoming point for <i class="todo">Members/people</i> who are unfamiliar
with our processes and systems, to understand the organization;</li>
<li>New workshops: a relevant topic needs alignment around the
next steps for W3C, e.g., "generative AI", "Digital Identity on
the Web";</li>
<li>Monitoring industry trends: monitor other SDOs by leveraging the
knowledge of W3C Members and enrolling them to monitor outside
organizations, and report back on regular basis;</li>
<li>Publishing Report: Create public analyses of trends that affect
the Web, seeking rough consensus or presentation of
competing perspectives. The analyses would summarize
the trending topic, outline the promise and pitfalls that are
being discussed, point to relevant W3C efforts, and indicate
the degree of consensus in the group on the value of the topic
for the Web;</li>
<li>Chartering: there is a charter but we need to measure the interest
from the W3C community at large and make it fit in the larger
picture, e.g., Real Estate IG.</li>
