Isn't Web Platform Incubator Community Group the group browsers makers formed because the W3C was being too slow and then largely overtook the W3C in terms of relevance?
No, I would say you were describing WHATWG and their HTML5 specification (now called the HTML Living Standard)

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WHATWG

The Web Platform Incubator Community Group is "a lightweight venue for proposing and discussing new web platform features" within the W3C

Oh yeah I got that mixed up. Thanks.
