Re: edited TTWG draft charter, VTT?

Not so much an opinion as a restatement - at this point we seem to be in
the realm of process. We made the following resolution at TPAC 2016 in
Lisbon [1] as proposed by David Singer:

> RESOLUTION: If we do not move WebVTT to CR in this Charter period then
>we will not include it in any new Charter.


[1] https://www.w3.org/2016/09/19-tt-minutes.html#resolution01

If there's another way to meet the needs of the folk who want to progress
VTT, then one way to satisfy that resolution is to close this line of work
in TTWG and remove it from the draft new Charter; I think the Process
requires publication as a WG Note in this event. I assume that this does
not preclude taking it up again in another WG or other forum.

I can't actually see any other ways to satisfy the resolution - are there
any? 

Otherwise we would need to make a new different decision very quickly (and
our Decision Policy review period for any decision made now expires after
the end of the current Charter, so time is not in favour); before doing
that I would ideally like to see some evidence that something has changed
to warrant us revisiting it.

For tracking purposes, I raised
https://github.com/w3c/charter-timed-text/issues/21 on Thursday 22nd March.
