FW: Fall 2020 TPAC Event - Community Group Meetings

Dear Audio Description Community Group,

As you'll see from below, TPAC is being organised as a virtual event this year. We have a short window of opportunity to arrange a call.

I would suggest as an agenda:

  *   Status of audio features in TTML2
  *   Status of our profile of TTML2
  *   Have any requirements changed since we began work? (for example do we need to think more about object-based audio standards also known as "next generation audio", and how audio description works in the context of those)
  *   How do we get to a point of "shipping" an audio description standard?

We may invite other groups to join us, for example the Timed Text Working Group, Audio Working Group, Media Working Group, Media and Entertainment Interest Group, etc.

I need to complete the form by 13th August.

If you would like to attend a meeting, some time from 12-16 October, please respond to let me know. If I get 3 or more positive responses, I will arrange the meeting.

Please let me know:

  *   Would you like me to arrange a meeting?
  *   Any particular agenda topics of interest to you
  *   Any other groups you would like to invite

Kind regards,

Nigel

[This e-mail is bcc'ed to all W3C Community Group Chairs]

Dear Community Group Chairs,

W3C is organizing a Fall 2020 TPAC Event [1]. The format we propose focuses on collaborative meetings that bring together the community and create momentum and brainstorming.

This year, the group meetings will be self-organized. Observers are allowed in all distributed meetings so that members of our community have the opportunity to see the work of the W3C groups.

The group chairs will opt-in to appear on the global meeting schedule W3C will publish.

The groups appearing on the schedule will agree on the following principles:

·         create interaction with more of the community

·         allow observers so that members of our community have the opportunity to see the work of the W3C groups.

The group meetings will not overlap the TPAC breakout week (26 to 30 October)

We invite the Community Groups who would like to appear on the global meeting schedule to enter their meeting details on the following wiki before *Thursday 13 August*:

Registered participants in W3C Community Groups may participate in their CG meeting.  See other participation rules on the Fall 2020 TPAC Event website [2].
