Meeting minutes

  This meeting

   Nigel: Today we celebrate IMSC 1.2 Rec! And consider the ARIB
   liaison response.
   … TTML2 IR - I've had a look and would like to mention a couple
   of things
   … Lastly a small amount of TPAC planning.
   … Any other business, or points to ensure we cover?

   Pierre: Is that TTML2 issue on the agenda?

   Nigel: Not currently.

   Pierre: 1211 - the one about writingMode and direction
   … I guess if Cyril is not on the call maybe it will be a short
   discussion.

   Nigel: We can raise it.

   group: [no other business]

  IMSC 1.2 Rec

   Nigel: Congratulations all, and thank you all for your work on
   this, it's great to publish!
   … Special shout out to Pierre for Editing.

   [13]IMSC 1.2 Rec

     [13] https://www.w3.org/TR/ttml-imsc1.2/


   Nigel: I think there is no more to do on this?

   Atsushi: I don't think there are any additional tasks for this
   Rec.

   Pierre: So Pull Request #563 should be merged?
   … And 565 good to merge too?

   Atsushi: Yes, that's in the Rec.

   Pierre: So all the outstanding Pulls should be merged?

   Atsushi: Please be careful not to conflict 564 and 565

   Pierre: Yes, though the current ED is the Rec because there's
   no modification

   Atsushi: Right

   Pierre: Thank you, I will merge.

   Atsushi: 564 is the actual source file I used for publication.

   <atsushi> [14]https://github.com/w3c/imsc/pull/

   564#issuecomment-667834906

     [14] https://github.com/w3c/imsc/pull/564#issuecomment-667834906


   Pierre: I will be careful with that then
   … And in the Rec the group has been changed in the respec
   settings?

   Atsushi: No, the respec config is internal now, replacing the
   settings doesn't change the output.

   Pierre: Ok that's fine. But the Rec did not include pull 563

   Atsushi: Yes, it does not include it, but it does include 565.

   Pierre: Alright, I will take care of that. I will merge 565
   into 564 and then that will be the Rec,
   … and then separately will merge 563.

   Atsushi: sure.

   Pierre: OK I'll take of this, thanks.

  ARIB liaison response

   Nigel: Thank you to those who proposed changes on the google
   doc, they all made sense
   … so I accepted them all.
   … Just checking in, did anyone try to look at the google doc
   and fail?

   group: [silence]

   Nigel: Ok, a good sign.
   … I think this is good. There's one TODO on it, so we should do
   that and send.

   Pierre: There's some cleaning up, but I'm happy with the
   substance. Commas and full-stops
   … missing etc.

   Nigel: I will proof-read before sending.
   … For the TODO, I need to point them at somewhere for joining
   TTWG.
   … Could put me, or the home page, or the Charter. Is there a
   normal way to do it?

   Atsushi: Normally there would be a cover page, but for this
   time I think it is fine to include
   … the Charter/Home page and How to Join in that section of the
   response.

   Nigel: If I'm suggesting someone to talk to, should I mention
   the Chairs and yourself Atsushi?

   Atsushi: I suppose they will take the Chairs and team contact
   as myself from the liaisons page.

   Nigel: If ARIB members see this they are unlikely to know about
   the W3C liaisons page.
   … Better to be clear about how to join and who to talk to.
   … That's the Chairs and Team Contact I think. Good.

   Nigel: What review opportunities do we want?
   … By default, I think we're at the point where I can edit this
   and send it almost as is.
   … But if anyone wants more review time, please say!
   … I won't come to this until Monday at the earliest.

   Pierre: My recommendation is if you want to make the editorial
   pass, post it through the
   … reflector, give people 1 day and then proceed.

   Nigel: Thanks for that.
   … I think it's in the remit of the Chair to send this, and I
   really appreciate the input so far.
   … I will give a short review cycle and then proceed.
   … Thank you all!
   … We've spent a lot of time on this and I feel it is
   worthwhile.

  TTML 2 2nd Ed.

   Nigel: Last week I mentioned that the IR covers a lot of
   features, none of which are at risk.
   … I checked again and I think the structure of the IR doesn't
   quite match what the exit criteria
   … need. In particular there are changed features that have
   validation tests but no presentation
   … tests, and we may have presentation implementations that
   could usefully be brought in.
   … I'm thinking in particular about the implied audio features,
   where there is only a validation
   … test but there may be a presentation implementation.
   … Therefore I think we may need to restructure in relation the
   changed features and group
   … the tests like that instead of around validation pass/fail +
   presentation tests.
   … My thinking on that is work in progress.
   … I think the action for me is to follow up on this with Cyril
   and Glenn.

  Virtual TPAC 2020 planning

   Nigel: Thank you for your ongoing help organising, Atsushi.
   … Things are in progress with MEIG and Media WG, and with CSS
   WG.
   … However with CSS WG we don't have a list of agenda items, and
   I think it would be
   … helpful to begin putting that together if we can.
   … They may not be obvious, for example font fingerprinting
   could be one of them.

   Pierre: I think Cyril is key to this - he's recently filed an
   issue against Chrome for example.

   Nigel: I saw that, about oblique.

   Nigel: Then there's a request to us!
   … Janina from APA asked for a joint meeting about formalising
   synchronisation requirements
   … for making media accessible when there are different
   representations, e.g. text + audio.
   … That was my understanding.
   … I think we should say yes. We obviously do care about
   synchronisation of timed text
   … against media, and we don't know the shape of what they're
   proposing at this time.
   … Assuming there are no naysayers, I will respond positively.

   Gary: No objections here.
   … This goes hand in hand with what Chris Needham from BBC has
   been doing about the
   … timing of the cue events and time updates in the media
   element and how, because they
   … happen so infrequently, it's hard to synchronise.

   Nigel: Yes, I think it does.
   … I think one of the things APA is interested to know is if
   there are different thresholds for
   … synchronisation accuracy for different kinds of presentation.
   … This email was sent to me and Gary. I think she may not know
   about the links with
   … MEIG and Media WG, so we should respond to inform APA about
   that work.

   Nigel: I Chair ADCG too and asked them if they would like to
   spend time with us here, but
   … so far the silence implies they're happy for us to continue,
   I think.

   Nigel: Separately I think we have dates for the AC week in
   virtual TPAC 2020 now...
   … Thank you Atsushi for sending the details to the member-tt
   reflector.

  AOB - Chairing on 2020-08-13

   Nigel: Regrets from me for next week. Assumption is the meeting
   goes ahead as normal?

   Gary: I can probably Chair it.

   Nigel: It doesn't seem that there's a huge amount for the
   agenda.

   Atsushi: do we plan long group meeting in solid date/time?

   Nigel: During TPAC?

   Atsushi: yes. 3 weeks of proposed meetings.
   … 1st joint.
   … 2nd group meetings.
   … 3rd breakouts
   … Do we plan to have our group meeting during TPAC?

   Nigel: I would be in favour - I think there are topics that
   could warrant a longer session.

   Pierre: Everybody is going to get the same slots so unless we
   need a WG meeting we should
   … avoid doing so.

   Nigel: I'm thinking about topics like IMSC future requirements,
   ADPT, TTML Live extensions
   … etc. and that will need a lot of prep. I think we could use a
   longer session, but it needs
   … prep time and it doesn't have to be in virtual TPAC, it could
   be later.

   Pierre: Exactly.

   Nigel: In answer, I think we quite likely won't meet, and if we
   do then it would likely be
   … maximum one day.

   Atsushi: We need to complete the wiki form, so if we can fix
   that it would be a great help
   … for me.

   Nigel: Understood!

  (AOB) Interaction between tts:writingMode and tts:direction on <p>
  w3c/ttml#1211

   github: [15]https://github.com/w3c/ttml2/issues/1211


     [15] https://github.com/w3c/ttml2/issues/1211


   Nigel: One thing I note about this is Direction003 used to be
   in TTML tests and has moved
   … to IMSC tests and that has confused a couple of people
   independently recently.
   … Does anyone else feel that an explainer for Where to Find
   TTML Tests would be a useful document?

   Pierre: Looking at Glenn's comments, he thinks TTPE's
   presentation is wrong.

   Nigel: He thinks the reference render is wrong though.

   Pierre: [explains how the lines in the p all use the whole
   width so the layout direction - scribe failure]

   Nigel: Is textAlign used in the test?

   Pierre: It would be weird for textAlign to be affected by
   writingMode.
   … I think we need an answer from Glenn.

   Nigel: How do you know the line areas cover the whole width?
   That seems unusual.

   Pierre: Exactly.

   Pierre: Maybe we need to get everyone around the table for that
   with examples.

   Nigel: I'm sure if we schedule this for a meeting and invite
   Glenn then we can gather him and
   … anyone else interested.

   Andreas: I planned also to look into this issue so please keep
   me posted if you schedule a
   … separate meeting.

   Nigel: My default here would be to use one of these TTWG weekly
   calls if possible.

   Nigel: Let's allow the conversation to continue on the issue
   thread, and convene a meeting
   … perhaps in 2 weeks time, if there are outstanding questions.

   Pierre: Alright.

   SUMMARY: Continue discussions on the issue thread for the time
   being.

  Meeting close

   Nigel: The clock has just ticked over to the hour, and we've
  completed our agenda. I'm adjourning this meeting!
