Re: Call for Consensus to publish WebVTT as a Candidate Recommendation

Hi David et al.,

This document is not hosted on the W3C github repo? Why not simply
create a CR branch at https://github.com/w3c/webvtt ?

Also, the following paragraph should be removed since this
specification is managed by TTWG exclusively at this point -- the CG
has no control over it.

"""Work on this specification is being undertaken both in the Web
Media Text Tracks Community Group as well as in the W3C Timed Text
Working Group. The latter group works towards a W3C Recommendation for
reference purposes with interoperability requirements, while the
former is a Draft Community Group Report that continues to evolve."""

Best,

-- Pierre

This email is a call for consensus to make the transition based on this version of the document; barring any objections within the WG's Decision Policy period of 10 working days as defined in the Charter, I will ask for this transition request to be made.
