As far as I'm aware this is already the case, doing an implementation 
(complete or not), or being an expert in one of the technologies, 
coupled with the willingness to be involved and active within the group 
is, afaik, what it takes be accepted as an invited expert, whether you 
ask to join or are invited.

Also, IIRC process has been loosened recently so that it's easier for 
experts from one group to join other groups.

Personally I've found the W3C very open and inclusive on a number of 
occasions, being an invited expert myself, I'm sure many others here 
like Toby, Melvin and Henry will all say the same.

That is, what you say above, is pretty much already the case :)

Best,

Nathan
