Re: [Fwd: Last Call Announcement: DFXP 1.0]

I've reviewed the document on the plane to New York (to the Open Video
Conference) and am about to write a review blog post and a reply
email. I will give it as general feedback, not from our group.

I think DFXP satisfies all the requirements we could have as a group
toward a caption / timed text format, namely:
* providing a language descriptor for the file (-> lang attribute in tt element)
* providing means of directly accessing markers for time fragments (->
id attribute on timed text paragraphs)

The only thing maybe missing is to provide a track name for when the
DFXP file is included in a media file, but that is not as important
and can be done during the muxing-process (e.g. using skeleton in
Ogg).

Anything else I forgot to make sure is available?

Cheers,
Silvia.
