--- Comment #20 from Silvia Pfeiffer <silviapfeiffer1@gmail.com> 2012-02-02 04:02:30 UTC ---
Getting the information from different discussion threads in here:

An earlier suggestion by Ian was:
>
> For example:
>
>  00:00.000 --> 00:01.000
>  one <! inline comment > one
>
>  COMMENT-->
>  00:02.000 --> 00:03.000
>  two; this is entirely
>  commented out
>
>  <! this is the ID line
>  00:04.000 --> 00:05.000
>  three; last line is a ">"
>  which is part of the cue
>  and is not a comment.
>  >

> The above would work today in a conforming UA. The question really is what
> parts of this do we want to support and what do we not care enough about.

I'm bringing this up again because the WebM community is currently discussing
how to encapsulate WebVTT into WebM, see
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1-tVXd1mRlWNvZrdIkLAJEp5xt3gDVDwfVubyUm9oNJ4/edit?hl=en_US
.

It has some thoughts on how to handle the features that we are still
discussing, comments amongst them.

It would be time we resolve those outstanding features.
