Dear Advisory Committee Representative,
Chairs,

The Director is pleased to announce the recharter of the Timed Text 
Working Group:
    https://www.w3.org/2019/11/timed-text-wg-charter.html

This group is chartered through 31 December 2021.

The mission of the Timed Text Working Group is to develop W3C 
Recommendations for the representation of timed text in media, including 
developing and maintaining new versions of the Timed Text Markup 
Language (TTML) and WebVTT (Web Video Text Tracks) based on 
implementation experience and interoperability feedback, and the 
creation of semantic mappings between those languages.

The re-charter extends the Group's duration and adds the TTML Profile 
for Audio Description to its deliverables.

The group co-chairs are Nigel Megitt (BBC) and Gary Katsevman 
(Brightcove). The team contact is Atsushi Shimono (0.2 FTE).

For more information about the group, see its home page:
    https://www.w3.org/AudioVideo/TT/

Use the following form to join or re-join the group. The form will also 
instruct you how to nominate participants:
    https://www.w3.org/2004/01/pp-impl/34314/join

This Call for Participation triggers the start of the 45 days grace 
period [1]. Existing participants of the Working Group under the 
previous charter are required to leave and then re-join the group 
because this charter has a new deliverable in-scope.

[...]
This announcement follows section 7.1.2 of the W3C Process Document:
   https://www.w3.org/2019/Process-20190301/#ACReviewAfter

and the Call for Participation follows section 5.2.4 of the W3C Process 
Document:
   https://www.w3.org/2019/Process-20190301/#cfp

Thank you,

For Tim Berners-Lee, W3C Director,
Philippe Le Hegaret, Project Management Lead, and
