Re: edited TTWG draft charter, VTT?

If there is a decision this group should take, it's to move webvtt to CR. I
challenge you to get this done rather than throw another process roadblock
at webvtt.

It's ready and has been for a long time. No other specification in the
history of W3C has had to jump through this many hoops to get to CR.

All other groups of the W3C have deemed it ready for months of not years.

Do everyone a favour and just decide to move it.

Kind regards,
Silvia.
