Re: Wide Review request for DAPT

I would seriously consider renaming this document. It’s confusing for those of us that are familiar with “ADAPT”.

1. DAPT looks like a typo, as if it should be ADAPT

2. The very first sentence begins with A DAPT document. Again, it looks like a typo where a space was included, after the A, by autocorrect. It looks too much like ADAPT.

This message was Sent from my iPhone. Please excuse any typographic errors.

Dear Accessible Platform Architectures Working Group,

DAPT is a TTML-based format for the exchange of transcripts and scripts among authoring, prompting and playback tools in the localization and audio description pipelines. A DAPT document is designed to carry pertinent information for dubbing or audio description such as type of script, dialogue, descriptions, timing, metadata, original language transcribed text, translated text, language information, and audio mixing instructions, and to be extensible to allow user-defined annotations or additional future features.

The TTWG invites feedback on DAPT and seeks input on the questions raised as issues within the Working Draft, for example on whether it is important to support direct embedding or external referencing of recorded audio.

If you have feedback, we welcome it either in response to this message, or as issues raised against the DAPT repository, at https://github.com/w3c/dapt/issues/<https://shared.outlook.inky.com/link?domain=github.com&t=h.eJxFjk0OgyAYRK9iWDd8iEDFlVfhTyVqIQJp06Z3r7jpdt7My3xQOTY0NGjJOaYBYPZ5KRqbsMOzM2BVzOBTKi4BujVord2Hy-GYp9yzjjECdlJvH8bFbf4VYry2vSZMcX427F1KZ8jEGaUtVYJRawmBVvRSECpkhymvZneZ_ew2vLvzRR61NqcLl7ViW_E_-f4AASM3tQ.MEUCIB8RXD3PEbSzbyQxOvyG23j-WcwZX5YqD_P2v5l1rfCMAiEA_CU4XDiFGbon3B86sKMBa5bsD1sl_Kqvpqqq0Qn-RxY> , and request that any feedback is provided by September 10th 2023.
