First Draft Published for TTML Text and Image Profiles for Internet
Media Subtitles and Captions 1.0
1 May 2014 | Archive
http://www.w3.org/blog/news/archives/3818
Today the Timed Text Working Group (TT WG) published a First
Public Working Draft of "TTML Text and Image Profiles for
Internet Media Subtitles and Captions 1.0." This document
specifies two profiles of Timed Text Markup Language 1: a
text-only profile and an image-only profile. These profiles are
intended to be used across subtitle and caption delivery
applications worldwide, thereby simplifying interoperability,
consistent rendering and conversion to other subtitling and
captioning formats. The text profile is a superset of TTML
Simple Delivery Profile for Closed Captions (US). Learn more

CSS Will Change Module Level 1 First Draft Published
29 April 2014 | Archive
http://www.w3.org/blog/news/archives/3813
The Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) Working Group has published a
First Public Working Draft of "CSS Will Change Module Level 1"
. This document defines the will-change CSS property, which
allows an author to inform the UA ahead of time of what kinds
of changes they are likely to make to an element. This allows
the UA to optimize how they handle the element ahead of time,
performing potentially-expensive work preparing for an
animation before the animation actually begins. Learn more
about the Style Activity.

Workshops
* 2014-05-07 ( 7 MAY) – 2014-05-08 ( 8 MAY)
Seventh MultilingualWeb Workshop: New Horizons for the
Multilingual Web
http://www.multilingualweb.eu/documents/2014-madrid-worksho
p/2014-madrid-cfp
Madrid, Spain
Hosted by UPM
As with previous MultilingualWeb events, this workshop will
bring together speakers and participants with an interest
in best practices and standards aimed at helping content
creators, localizers, tools developers, and others meet the
challenges of the multilingual Web. This workshop will
emphasize new technology developments that may lead to new
opportunities for the Multilingual Web. A unique
proposition of the workshop is that it brings together
speakers and provides opportunities for networking across a
wide range of communities to produce a holistic view of the
problems faced in developing and deploying multilingual
content and applications on the Web.

Workshop on the Web of Things
http://www.w3.org/2014/02/wot/
Berlin, Germany
Hosted by Siemens
Participants in this workshop will examine the potential
for open standards as a basis for services, either between
devices, at the network edge, e.g. in home hubs, or in the
cloud. They will discuss the use of web protocols and
scripting languages for implementing services, the need for
APIs for implementing drivers for specific IoT
technologies, a shared approach to describing services as a
basis for interoperability, and the underlying use of
HTTP/COAP, Web Sockets, and EXI/JSON for RESTful services.
