Minutes of TT WG Teleconference on 02/24/05 Attendees Glenn Adams (XFSI, Chair, Scribe) [GA] Geoff Freed (WGBH/NCAM) [GF] Sean Hayes (Microsoft) [SH] Erik Hodge (RealNetworks) [EH] David Kirby (BBC) [DK] Regrets Mike Dolan (invited expert) [MD] Thierry Michel (W3C) [TM] Dave Singer (Apple) [DS] ************************************************************************ 1. Status of sample texts. ************************************************************************ [DK] Has exhausted attempts to obtain permission from Norma Farnes, without receiving any response. Action: [GA] Advise W3-COMM to remove 1st public WD from W3C site; request that this removal occur when 2nd WD is posted. [DK] BBC will not be able to provide formal permission to use Eastender text examples; however, BBC does not believe the amount of cited text presents any problem. Nevertheless, if a conservative positoin is required, then recommend replacing this example text as well. Action: [DK] to provide substitutes for Eastender text that use public domain text. ************************************************************************ 2. 2nd WD Status ************************************************************************ [GA] Reviews changes in 2nd WD draft: * addition of tts:unicodeBidi and tts:direction; these are needed to satisfy basic I18N requirements and TT-AF-1-0-REQ R291, and, in particular, to satisfy [1]. [1] http://www.w3.org/TR/unicode-xml/#Bidi * change previous ttp:smpteMode to new name of ttp:markerMode; * specify new ttp:smpteMode with values nonDrop, dropNTSC, and dropPAL; [DK] Notes that a default is not specified. Action: [GA] specify nonDrop as default for ttp:smpteMode. * change body time containment to "par" [EH] Notes this is consistent with HTML+Time. * specify implicit duration (in 10.4) to be "indefinite" when parent is "par" and 0 when parent is "seq"; [EH] notes that similar effect is achieved in SMIL by specifying a default fill of "hold" which causes discrete media to retain their display even when their implicit duration is zero. [EH] notes that implicit duration of indefinite causes parent "par" to be indefinite as well in case it does not have an explicit duration. [GA] wants to avoid introducing "fill" semantics in DFXP if using "indefinite" will suffice. Expect to discuss further at next F2F. [GA] is planning to write a psuedo-code algorithm for generating full time intervals in section 10.4 rather than depending on normative reference to SMIL, which is somewhat problematic for readers given its density and many other features which are not present in DFXP. * new sample images [GA] notes problems in images for tts:overflow, tts:wrapOption, and tts:writingMode. Action: [GF] to send updated images. Action: [GA] to incorporate new tts:direction and tts:unicodeBidi sample images provided by [GF]. [GA] asks if any objection to publishing 2nd WD with following changes: * specify nonDrop as default for ttp:smpteMode * update sample images for tts:overflow, tts:wrapOption, tts:writingMode * add sample images for tts:direction, tts:unicodeBidi * replace sample text/images in section 1.2 Document Example [*] No objection. Resolution: to send update as "Editor's Copy" to public-tt reflector and request W3-COMM publish as 2nd WD. Action: [GA] to send update as "Editor's Copy" to public-tt reflector and request W3-COMM publish as 2nd WD. ************************************************************************ 3. Schedule ************************************************************************ * telecon for next week (03/03) cancelled due to [GA] travel; next telecon will be 03/10; * still on schedule for LC on 03/18; ************************************************************************ 4. Open Issues ************************************************************************ [GA] Not discussed to lack of time. Issues that remain to be discussed: 1. [DS] doesn't like example of multiple <set>s to show a fade. 2. [DS] how to express drop frame vs non drop frame counting; [GA] suggest adopting [MD] proposal to relabel ttp:smpteMode as ttp:markerMode, then introduce new ttp:smpteMode with values "drop" and "nonDrop". [GA] Note this issue is addressed in new draft with introduction of new ttp:smpteMode. 3. [DS] whether to permit expressing durations in real or media time while operating in discontinuous SMPTE marker mode; [GA] suggest we (continue to) rule out durations while operating in discontinous mode; 4. [MD] wants to see buffer model characterized in streaming annex; [GA] we could add a number of parameters that characterize certain maximums that are relevant to buffering and processing on a user agent, such as (where max* means the maximum of some value that applies at a given instant in time): * ttp:maxRegions -- max regions at one time * ttp:maxStyles -- max styles that apply to content at one time * ttp:maxCharacters -- max chars to be displayed at one time * ttp:maxPixels -- max pixels of regions at one time 5. [GA] should we apply lowerCamelCase rules to attribute values as well, e.g., no-wrap vs noWrap; probably should apply in order to be consistent. [GA] Note this issue is addressed in new draft by changing attr values to lowerCamelCase. 6. [GA] there may be some authoring confusion around having a general ttm:agent attribute for content, but then having a local (unqualfieid) agent attribute for the ttm:actor element. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ START SUMMARY ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ *** RESOLUTIONS *** Resolution: to send update as "Editor's Copy" to public-tt reflector and request W3-COMM publish as 2nd WD. *** NEW ACTION ITEMS *** Action: [GA] Advise W3-COMM to remove 1st public WD from W3C site; request that this removal occur when 2nd WD is posted. Action: [DK] to provide substitutes for Eastender text that use public domain text. Action: [GA] specify nonDrop as default for ttp:smpteMode. Action: [GF] to send updated images for tts:overflow, tts:wrapOption, and tts:writingMode. Action: [GA] to incorporate new tts:direction and tts:unicodeBidi sample images provided by [GF]. Action: [GA] to send update as "Editor's Copy" to public-tt reflector and request W3-COMM publish as 2nd WD. *** CURRENT ACTION ITEMS *** Action: [EH] Provide use cases in TT context for priority class attr usage. Done. See [2]. [2] http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Member/member-tt/2004Nov/0011.html Action: [SH] To elaborate use cases for audio embed usage. Action: [GA] to generalize and clearly articulate [MD] feedback on XBC with TT-AF structured timing as use case, then send to WG for review prior to forwarding to XBC. Action: [GA] need to document conventions regarding normative definition of element vocabulary and syntax used therein. Done. See Section 2.3 of current WD. Action: [GA] need to characterize definitions of vocabulary as normative while supplied schemas are informative. Closed. See Annex B intro text. Schmas are now normative; however, body of spec provides ultimate definition of conformance, not any particular schema. Action: [GA] review recent proposed changes regarding xml:space from XML Core Working Group with view of changing our vocabulary definitions as necessary. Action: [GA] restore nested <div/> in content model. Closed. Obviated by subsequent decision to not support nested <div/> in DFXP. Action: [GA] ensure that background color applies to content elements as well as region. Done. Action: [GA] change language in vocab element defs that defines equiv class of attrs in foreign namespace to not admit unqualified attrs. Action: [GA] need to ensure that we document whether time intervals are half-opened intervals or closed. We always use half-opened intervals for [begin,end) = [begin,begin+dur). Action: [GA] ensure there is language that gives precendence to end over dur in case both are specified. Action: [GA] remove region attribute from span element. Closed. Obviated by new content to region mapping algorithm. Action: [GA], prompted by [SH], need to define what is meant by begin attribute on <body>. Done. Action: [KB] lookup whether default time container for SMIL body is seq or par. Report back by tomorrow (9/16). Done. It was "seq". Action: [GA] add table indicating default values for timeContainer. Done. Action: [GA] remove nested <span> support from schema and span element definition. Done. Action: [GA] Update schema to permit multiple tts:* attributes on style element. Done. Action: [GA] make style attribute IDREFS instead of ID. Done. Action: [GA] add style attribute to <g/>. Closed. <g/> not supported in DFXP; however, need to ensure it is present in AFXP. Action: [GA] change region so that it uses style attribute to refer to styles in addition to defining them inline as children. Done. Action: [GA] need to establish precedence for different style association mechanisms as follows, with priority order as follows: (1) inline, (2) referential or chained referential, (3) region referential. In case that referential or chained referential results in a diamond graph, then last instance of style in pre-order depth first traversal wins. Done. Action: [SH] will research issue of interaction of combination rule #2 and region referential styling. Action: [GA] add <p> and <span> to list of elements to which background-color applies Done. Action: [GA] change initial value of color style property to transparent. [N.B. consequence of this is that unless author specifies a color, then content will be invisible.] Done. Action: [GA] restore "inherit" value for style properties. Done. Action: [GA] specify language about meaning of line height. Action: [GA] formulate proposal to express coordinates in rows and columns and to express total # of rows/cols for which content was composed. Partially done. Needs more work. Action: [GA] change DFXP schema and WD to use <meta> instead of <metadata>. Done. Action: [DK] Discuss with [MD] how to express pull-down parameters to completely characterize frame and field composition. Done. Action: [GA] need to add following metadata items to schema and spec: ttm:frame-rate ttm:frame-width ttm:frame-height ttm:pixel-aspect-ratio ttm:content-width ttm:content-height ttm:content-x ttm:content-y ttm:horizontal-resolution ttm:vertical-resolution. Done. [But subsequently changed to use different (TT Paramemter) namespace and to not support frame extent or content origin; use tts:extent on <tt/> to express content extent. Remove h/v-res.] Action: [GA] need to specify semantics for each metadata item, need to specify what it means if multiple items with same name are present in some context, and if not permitted, expected behavior. Done. Action: [GA] add definitions of following metadata elements to schema and spec for DFXP: ttm:agent, ttm:name, ttm:givenName, ttm:familyName, ttm:actor. Also add ttm:agent attribute to <p> and <span>. Done. [Note that name, giveName, and familyName are collapsed, and use a type attr to specify type of name.] Action: [GA] add ttm:title, ttm:description, ttm:copyright to schema and spec for DFXP. Done. Action: [GA] ensure that all elements can also take ttm:* attributes, but need to define in context of specific elements which ones have standard semantics. Action: [GA] define semantics of ttm:agent metadata attribute such that inner specifications override outer specifications, e.g., Action: [GA] change text-shadow to text-outline with value syntax as follows: none | <color> <thickness> <blur-radius>, where thickness and blur-radius are expressed as <length>. Done. Remove text-shadow, support only text-outline. Action: [GA] add span to wrap-option "applies to". Done. Now specified as applies to span only, but inheritable. Action: [GA] for each AFXP style property that we don't include in DFXP, need to specify a normative default value for DFXP, but do so in a way that doesn't require normative use of AFXP specification. Action: [GA] since <color>s are opaque, need to say so in verbiage. Action: [GA] Remove misspelled "monotype" entry from <generic-family- name>, and replace it with "default". All other entries are also to be removed for present time. Done. Action: [GA] Add row/col units to <length> style value expression. Done. Express as "c" meaning "cells". Action: [GA] Ensure that if we define overflow="clip" on region that we say that outermost region is expected to be clipped in all cases. Action: [GA] change overflow attribute on region to use tts:overflow style property, which applies only to region, and which supports values: visible, hidden, inherit. Done. [Note also later introduction of "dynamic" value.] Action: [GA] Change clock-value syntax to support expressing optional frames and subframes in order to express NPT media times. Define clock value semantically to be NPT for TT media object. Remove optional "+" value from offset-expression (in which case we don't need "offset- expression" intermediate term). Done. Action: [GA] allow style to use style attribute to refer to other styles, since we effectively now allow <style> to work like a group of styles. Done. Action: [GA] remove "div" from display-align's applies to list. Can't apply to div since div has no explicit height/width. Done. Action: [GA] Add ttm:default-time-metric metadata item. Takes values that are one of time-count metric, e.g., "h", "m", "s", "f", etc. Done. See ttp:defaultTimeMetric. Action: [GA] send John's document to WG reflector, then (at some point in future) ask him to send to public list so it can be handled as public submission. Action: [GA] Add informative Annex to DFXP spec which enumerates the requirements of TT-AF-1-0-REQ which are intentionally not intended to be met in DFXP. Done. See Annex E. Action: [KB] Review the March 2002 TT Task Force requirements to see if the current TT-AF-1-0-REQ does not include all those earlier requirements, and if not, then make a case for including in TT-AF-1-0-REQ. [TM] will help as required and report back to WG. Action: [DB] to send draft intro text with example by Monday (10/04). Closed. [GA] wrote intro text. Action: [MD] to send normative text descriptions of SMPTE marker labels. Will send after returning from vacation in a week's time. Done. Action: [DS] to send font registration I-D to IETF editors for publishing. Done. Action: [GA] To make necessary chanes to DFXP draft to support ttm:desc and ttm:title in contexts where tt:meta can appear. Done. Action: [GA] To send minutes with attached lastest draft (in the form of an "editor's copy") of DFXP to public TT reflector by end of day on Oct 18 unless objection arises from some member. Done. Action: [GA] send email to reflector on need to distinguish between outer media time and timebase time (based on parent relationships); issue is as follows: if you have begin="00:00:01", then does this denote 1 sec in time base established by parent element, or does it denote 1 sec into the TT media object (independently of parent timebases)? Can one mix both timebase times and outer media times? Done. See ttp:timeBase parameter. Action: [GA] to complete DFXP draft 6 and sent to member reflector by noon ET on Tuesday, 10/26/04, then work with [TM] to request publishing as Public WD. Done. Action: [TM] to draft request for [GA] to send to appropriate parties to begin process of advancing DFXP to public WD. Done. Action: [GA] To verify that TTPRO DB is well configured to handle DFXP comments. Action: [DK] To help verify that TTPRO DB is populated with open DFXP issues. Action: [GA] Will resolve any issues about having F2F with W3T (Philipp Hoschka) and report results. Done.

Action: [GA] Change all names to camelCase form. Done. Action: [GA] Remove editorial note in 5.3.4; already covered by text in 2nd paragraph. Done. Action: [GA] Add text to 5.3.4, saying that the concrete font used to map monospace-* and proportional-* should be monospace, proportional, etc. Done. Define mapping to be system dependent. Action: [GA] further research required on quoted-string. Action: [DK] to obtain permission and propose language for proper attribution in acknowledgments annex. Done. Final resolution is that permissions not obtainable in reasonable time period. Replace all samples with public domain text. Action: [DK] will elaborate examples in [*] (1), dividing into 3: (a) showing mixed language material; (b) separate translations of same material in different documents; (c) mixture of separate translations in same document, where (c) is explicitly disrecommended.
