Re: ISSUE-267 (nigel): Wording in 12.1.7 doesn't convey intended meaning [TTML 1.0]

Apologies, I agree no change is needed.

Not a bug. See 12.1.5 for meaning of "significant" in this context:

A ttm:agent metadata item is considered to be significant only when specified as a child of the head element or as a child of a metadata element child of the head element.

Raised by: Nigel Megitt
On product: TTML 1.0

The comment in https://dvcs.w3.org/hg/ttml/raw-file/default/ttml10/spec/ttml-changes.html#change-history-per-to-rec-23 in section 1.1:

* In 12.1.7, clarify that agent attribute on ttm:actor must reference a "significant" ttm:agent
  element, i.e., a ttm:agent appearing as a child of head or a child of a metadata child of head.

attaches a meaning to the word "significant" that is non-obvious within the draft text. I suggest rewording the sentence to:

The agent attribute of a ttm:actor element must reference a ttm:agent element that denotes the person, group, or organization acting the part of a character, and that appears as a descendant of head.
