nigel: I sent Mike our dispositions on the SMPTE email on
Monday. Just for info, when David Singer
... reviewed the draft he noticed that the TTML2 features may
be subject to further change when we
... go to wide review, so we added an extra sentence in the
introduction to highlight that point.
... Obviously Mike already knows it anyway.

want to call out any specifically that may

action-398?
<trackbot> action-398 -- Andreas Tai to Contact erik lindstrom
re htmlcue -- due 2015-04-17 -- OPEN
<trackbot>
[22]http://www.w3.org/AudioVideo/TT/tracker/actions/398
[22] http://www.w3.org/AudioVideo/TT/tracker/actions/398
andreas: I wrote to Erik re the generic HTMLCue idea and he
responded today that there has been
... some ongoing work with Glenn and it was considered for use
in blink. The idea was to transform
... TTML documents to ISDs and then generate HTML code from
them. That was the basic idea. Maybe
... the document itself shouldn't be proposed directly to the
group but could be the basis for a proposal.
... The next thing is to check if Opera or Erik is able to work
with someone else in the group on that
... proposal. I understand this is something we can discuss
with the HTML WG at the next TPAC meeting.
... Possibly this group should scope more what our requirements
should be for this internal cue concept.
close action-398
<trackbot> Closed action-398.
Andreas: The idea was that we make some kind of proposal for
the HTML WG. I think we decided we
... want to go ahead with this. Is that right?
pal: Yes, I think there was broad consensus that it would be a
good idea.
andreas: I think so; I can imagine that Erik or Opera would be
willing to participate in this if there are
... other collaborators, and to use their input as a base. I'm
certainly interested but have not enough
... knowledge at the moment to volunteer.
pal: This has been a long running project. As I recall, Glenn
had put a lot of effort into trying to get this
... done and the obstacles were not technical. So do you feel
that those obstacles have been overcome
... and this is mainly technical work? I'm just trying to
understand the status. I'd love to be able to help.
andreas: Mostly my information is based on what Glenn said. I
think the main obstacle is time on Glenn's
... side, that was my interpretation. This hasn't yet been
proposed to HTML WG but was a ticket raised
... on Chromium, but it didn't get positive feedback.
pal: So the current strategy is to write an HTML extension and
submit it to the HTML WG. I'm happy to help.
... Is there a draft? Do we have a beginning?
andreas: I'm not sure. He brought Opera's proposal in as a good
start. Possibly we can say that pal and I
... are willing to help and if we can work with Erik then we
can plan on how to push this forward.
pal: Maybe we can take this on with just the 4 of us and see
where we go.
nigel: Great, we need to turn this into actions. Philippe,
what's the normal way to publish HTML extensions?
... Do we have to do it as a Recommendation, or is a Note okay?
plh: There's no standard way to do it. It could be published by
HTML WG under the Media Task Force
... or here - if you want it to be a Recommendation from this
group then you need to update the charter
... and send it to AC for review. It's normal for HTML
extensions to be Rec track documents.
... This reminds me that the Media Task Force met 2 weeks ago
and discussed transcripts. There is
... interest there to do further work on transcripts.
... Figure out where the best place is to work on it, in HTML
WG or here, and then adjust the
... charters as needed. Adding a deliverable to a charter isn't
too difficult to do.
nigel: It seems to me that we need two pieces of work: one to
define the generic HTMLCue structure
... and the other to define the mapping from TTML/ISD to
HTMLCue.
Andreas: Do you think the HTML WG would define the HTMLCue and
and we would define the mapping?
nigel: Yes, that's what I was thinking. Even if we write the
HTMLCue spec and give it to HTML WG as an
... extension that would be fine.
pal: I tend to agree with nigel that for both implementation
and correctness the HTML WG should publish
... the generic HTMLCue part.
plh: The best thing is to pitch it to the Media Task force and
the HTML Accessibility Task Force. They
... both work on media related issues. Once you guys have a
proposal I'm happy to help.
nigel: I'd like to make an 'in principle' proposal first before
we put in loads of effort that would be
... rejected.
plh: Certainly as much detail on use cases and proposed
approaches for solving them would be useful.

Courtney: I talked to dsinger - clearly this is under way and
he's actively running it. I didn't get a schedule from him.
... I'm happy with the progress report so far. He sent a
spreadsheet - he's going to update it and maybe
... make it into a web page. Other than that everyone's aware -
it's all been on the public list.

Issues
issue-382?
<trackbot> issue-382 -- Require a computed non-indefinite begin
time -- open
<trackbot>
[25]http://www.w3.org/AudioVideo/TT/tracker/issues/382
[25] http://www.w3.org/AudioVideo/TT/tracker/issues/382
pal: There's been a lot of offline discussions on this issue.
To summarise: there's a difference in opinion
... on exactly how the Root Temporal Extent works and what it
means and the interaction between
... TTML1 and SMIL. So the very premise is still murky;
therefore it's been difficult to make progress.
... My thinking on this is that I don't think IMSC 1 can do
much to resolve ambiguities in SMIL and TTML1.
... If they are there they should be resolved at some point.
The best IMSC 1 can do today with the
... least impact is to recommend that begin and end are used on
div or p. That does not resolve the
... existing ambiguity but unambiguously captures when elements
are active within an IMSC 1 document.
... That would not be a SHALL but rather a SHOULD. In the
majority of TTML documents I've seen so far
... begin and end are used on p or div. We can continue to try
to dig, and maybe reach a resolution.
... The other is to add a recommendation in IMSC 1 to specify
begin and end on ps and divs. EBU-TT-D
... actually requires begin and end on p or span. Or the third
option is to do nothing.
... I'm not optimistic that we can resolve the ambiguity.
andreas: I agree with pal on this. I thought we might conclude
to recommend the use of timing
... explicitly in the document. So I think that was the second
option.
pal: Yes, actually we had discussed a SHALL. I'm not sure
that's appropriate because it sounds like
... there are applications where it's correct to omit begin and
end times even though the vast majority
... of cases include them.
andreas: In the discussions I've had with people not involved
in the specification process they like as
... many SHALLs as possible. If we know there are some problems
and there are no clear use cases
... not to specify begin and end I can still see reasons to
specify a SHALL not a SHOULD.
nigel: The use case comes from me actually in thinking about
live cases. For distribution use cases I
... agree that begin and end times should or even shall be
present, but the scope of IMSC is not
... completely restricted to distribution. I would accept a
compromise that qualifies the requirement
... with it only applying when distributing the documents in a
wrapper format.
pal: I am not sure that the times must always be present so
that's why I'm proposing a SHOULD.
andreas: It's always a specification issue whether you know
there's a use case or you don't know that
... there isn't a use case. I'd be happy to go with a should if
that's what you think.
pal: If we're happy with this then I'd add a simple line under
#timing to say begin and end should be
... present on at least one of div, p and span.
nigel: That works for me. You do need to allow for the
possibility of timing on span.
... Are you also planning to add a note on the potential
ambiguity?
pal: The best I could write is maybe: "if begin remains
indefinite then the begin corresponds to the begin
... of the root temporal extent"... but that's where the
disagreement is so I'm not sure what to write.
nigel: As far as I know this issue has been raised only by
Pierre. If we just make this change then
... maybe if there's an implementation problem we can deal with
that as a specific problem to solve.
... That sounds like a resolution to this issue.
pal: When I've done that then that will allow me to move ahead
with the CR2 and the list of changes.
plh: I'll help you with that. Are there any substantial
changes?
nigel: Yes, we reviewed them in the F2F and minuted them.
plh: If you make substantive changes you have to go to LC.
nigel: That's not what we understood - there is no LC in the
new process.
plh: Ah my mistake you're on the 2014 process. We will have to
ask for Director permission to go to CR
... again.
IMSC Test Suite and Implementation Report
nigel: My BBC colleagues spotted that the example video on the
frameSync test has an edit list that
... moves the frames on by 2, which makes their gstreamer
implementation fail.
pal: I've sent you the source for that video - maybe your
colleagues could see if they can create an
... alternative version of the video without the edit list.
nigel: Okay I'll see what we can do.
WebVTT review feedback
Courtney: There's nothing more to report on this right now.
TTML2 Editorial Actions
nigel: We're out of time for this meeting but if you'd like to
volunteer for any editorial actions please
... email me.
... Thanks everyone! [adjourns meeting]
plh: regrets for next week (AC)
