Call for Wide Review of IMSC 1.0.1 WD for Web Media Text Tracks Community Group

Dear Web Media Text Tracks Community Group,

The W3C Timed Text Working Group has recently published a new working 
draft of the TTML Text and Image Profiles for Internet Media Subtitles 
and Captions, currently known as IMSC 1.0.1.
This specification contains two optional substantive features additional 
to the IMSC 1 Recommendation dated 21 April 2016 [2]:

   1. activeArea allows the document author to indicate which area
      contains active editorial content in the presentation.
   2. fillLineGap allows the document author to specify that the
      background areas of adjacent lines meet without an intervening gap.

This minor revision of the specification is designed such that 
Processors and document instances that conform to the Recommendation [2] 
also conform to this revision.

The TTWG invites you to review this draft, and requests comments to be
received by 07th May 2017. These comments will be used to fulfil the
W3C Process [3] requirement for Wide Review of drafts prior to
publication as Candidate Recommendation.

If you wish to make comments regarding this document, please send them
to public-tt@w3.org <mailto:public-tt@w3.orgwith [imsc] at the start
of your email's subject. All comments are welcome, however the scope of
review will be focused on the two new features described above.
