Feedback on open issues + PRs

Hi all,

It's time to take a look at the WebVTT spec again.

We're currently addressing the wide review comments (specifically
tagged) received from the TTWG on our WebVTT spec, see
https://github.com/w3c/webvtt/issues . Some PRs have been proposed.

One particular PR introduces named colors - this would be useful for
replicating CEA608/708 functionality as well as other captioning
standards, including the European standards. However, we could instead
simply specify what CSS colors are supported in the STYLE section of
the file and then leave the naming of classes for colors to the user.
I'm very curious about your feedback on this PR/issue:
https://github.com/w3c/webvtt/pull/395 and
https://github.com/w3c/webvtt/issues/365

Also, please provide feedback on the other open PRs:
https://github.com/w3c/webvtt/pulls
Even if it's just a "+1" - we need to get CG buy-in.

We aim to resolve the Wide Review comments by 6th November for the W3C
TPAC meeting, so any help you can provide with comments and even PRs
would be really useful.

Thanks for any and all help!

Cheers,
Silvia.
