   RESOLUTION: We will have a face to face meeting at TPAC,
   probably 2 days

   nigel: looks like meeting on Monday and Friday as last year
   would work best.

   RESOLUTION: We'll meet on the Monday and Friday

   glenn: It may be worth discussing generic track apis, datacue
   and texttrackcue, with HTML WG.

   nigel: I'll take this offline with David (who suggested meeting
   HTML WG)
   ... Agenda topics: obviously TTML2 makes sense - we can work on
   the rest of the agenda later.

F2F

MPEG liaison re MIME @codecs parameter

   action-282?

   <trackbot> action-282 -- Nigel Megitt to Add MPEG liaison to
   agenda for 24/3 TTWG meeting -- due 2014-04-24 -- OPEN

   glenn: what procedure would the recipient adopy to make use of
   this parameter? I can imagine a processor wanting to avoid
   looking inside a TTML document because it knows that there are
   some formats it cannot process.
   ... This looks like being a content profile claim. Could be a
   signal of processor profile required too - two sides of the
   same coin.
   ... a list of designations in the MIME types to identify
   profiles seems feasible. I don't think we want to create a
   second order set of names to map to those URIs.
   ... We could advocate creating a registry that associates 4
   character short labels with specific well-defined URIs with
   normative references available.

   nigel: that seems to fit well with the MPEG approach - we could
   even suggest that one codec value map to multiple URIs.

   pal: Is MPEG asking how to do this or what values should go
   into the codec parameter value?

   nigel: I don't know.

   pal: this group could recommend a set of profiles that should
   have codec values associated, and MPEG can then work out how to
   do that mapping.

   dsinger: W3C owns the root of the TTML tree, so the obvious
   thing to do is to have a registry for the various dialects and
   short identifiers that name them.

   glenn: It's possible that documents may adhere to multiple
   profiles, so would these short identifiers be expressed as a
   list or would the registry need to map short identifiers to
   lists?

   dsinger: it would be cleaner to have a list in the codecs
   parameter, which I think is possible.

   glenn: That sounds much better.

   dsinger: I think MPEG would say that the type is 'something
   derived from W3C TTML' and then the codec parameter would be
   delegated to the W3C registry. We should talk to W3C staff
   about that. Or IANA could do it.

   glenn: there are a number of registries in W3C based on wiki
   pages.

   dsinger: that would work.

   glenn: That would be easy to set up quickly.

   dsinger: Just call it 'short identifiers for TTML profiles'.

   nigel: Does MPEG need a long term commitment?

   dsinger: No, it's up to the managing organisation to look after
   the list.
   ... You should use characters that can be used in a MIME type.

   glenn: so a 4 character alphanumeric identifier would be
   sufficient.

   pal: 4 characters might not be sufficient. I'd go for more than
   that.

   glenn: 4 alphanumeric digits is 62^4 which should be more than
   enough.

   dsinger: It just needs to be a 'short' string, so 5, 6
   characters should be fine too.

   pal: I'm considering it from the human perspective.

   RESOLUTION: W3C to create wiki page holding this Registry

IMSC FPWD

   pal: we're on track to publish

   tmichel: I need 2 days between requesting publication and the
   actual publication

   nigel: I presume if you made the request on Tuesday and some
   hitch arose then we could pull the process?

   tmichel: yes. I'll request publication this Tuesday then.

   action-279?

   <trackbot> action-279 -- Pierre-Anthony Lemieux to Add [imsc]
   subject header in the imsc draft -- due 2014-04-24 -- OPEN

   tmichel: that's done.

   nigel: please could you add to the Notes on the action a link
   to the edit revision before setting to Pending Review?

   pal: sure!

Action Items overdue

   action-246?

   <trackbot> action-246 -- Nigel Megitt to Take deliverables of
   draft charter to TAG for scrutiny -- due 2014-04-17 -- OPEN

   <trackbot>
   [16]http://www.w3.org/AudioVideo/TT/tracker/actions/246


     [16] http://www.w3.org/AudioVideo/TT/tracker/actions/246


   action-246: I've been looking into this and think it may become
   a no-operation, still reviewing. It seems that we are not
   defining anything that will affect the architecture of the web.

   <trackbot> Notes added to action-246 Take deliverables of draft
   charter to TAG for scrutiny.

   action-254?

   <trackbot> action-254 -- Glenn Adams to Add errata note for
   ttml1 pointing at constraint in smil prohibiting dur of zero,
   add normative text to ttml2 -- due 2014-04-01 -- OPEN

   <trackbot>
   [17]http://www.w3.org/AudioVideo/TT/tracker/actions/254


     [17] http://www.w3.org/AudioVideo/TT/tracker/actions/254


   glenn: SMIL specifies that dur attributes must be non-zero. I'm
   now of the opinion that we should permit zero durations and add
   an explicit note to say so.
   ... The lack of prohibition is in TTML1 and used in tests. In
   SMIL even in the discussion it refers to implicit zero
   durations. All of the math in the timing calculations continues
   to work with explicit zero durations.
   ... There doesn't seem to be any need for it, although I
   suppose I could bring it up with the SMIL authors. My current
   thinking is to add an explicit permission of zero durations.

   nigel: there may be utility here in terms of event generation
   if an entry and exit event need to be generated without making
   an on-screen change.

   glenn: that could be the case. In cue and out cue events are
   permitted to have identical times.

   RESOLUTION: We will permit zero dur attribute values.

   issue-304?

   <trackbot> issue-304 -- Non-standard unqualified attributes not
   permitted -- open

   <trackbot>
   [18]http://www.w3.org/AudioVideo/TT/tracker/issues/304


     [18] http://www.w3.org/AudioVideo/TT/tracker/issues/304


   glenn: A user asked why we can't use an unqualified attribute
   name that is not in the TTML namespace. The spec doesn't quite
   say what we meant, so we need to add a note clarifying that
   "any attribute not in default or any TT namespace" should
   ... say "any qualified attribute..."

   <scribe> ACTION: glenn to implement proposed errata in
   issue-304 [recorded in
   [19]http://www.w3.org/2014/04/24-tt-minutes.html#action03]

   <trackbot> Created ACTION-285 - Implement proposed errata in
   issue-304 [on Glenn Adams - due 2014-05-01].

   glenn: I need to verify in the TTV that it's checking this. I'm
   pretty sure the schema would reject unqualified attributes so
   there may be no work needed.
   ... we haven't formally announced the TTV web page on the W3C
   website.

   <scribe> ACTION: glenn to send an email to public-tt describing
   the TTV hosting site at W3C [recorded in
   [20]http://www.w3.org/2014/04/24-tt-minutes.html#action04]

   <trackbot> Created ACTION-286 - Send an email to public-tt
   describing the ttv hosting site at w3c [on Glenn Adams - due
   2014-05-01].

   <Dsinger_> Still here

   close action-279

   <trackbot> Closed action-279.
