{Minutes} TTWG Meeting 2020-10-01

Thanks all for attending today's TTWG meeting. Minutes can be found in HTML format at https://www.w3.org/2020/10/01-tt-minutes.html


Note that we have initiated our Decision Policy on 2 resolutions:


  1.  Resolution: we publish the current ED of TTML Profiles Registry as a WG Note subject to editorial changes (e.g. update ReSpec)
  2.  Adopt /history in place of Previous Version for all future publications #145<https://github.com/w3c/ttwg/issues/145>
The review period for these will end on 15th October. For each, if there are no outstanding/unresolved objections by that date then a Chair will declare it to be a WG Decision.

We also agreed to advance our regular meeting time for meetings after 1st November by 1 hour to track the DST switch-off in USA and Europe, so that the local time of meetings in locations where DST is ending will stay the same.

There will be no TTWG teleconference on 29th October, which is the TPAC breakouts week.

Meeting minutes

  this meeting

   nigel: we have a placeholder for the IR of TTML2 2nd Ed IR
   … we have our fun issue of tts:direction
   … next call is dedicated to that particular issue
   … then TPAC planning is getting close
   … then we have an agenda item for TTML Profile Registry
   … but we haven't got the PR to process

   Mike: the PR you did nigel was more important
   … I see the issue that I have useful but not critical, I will
   get to it

   nigel: we could decide to publish without waiting

   Mike: I'll support that

   nigel: I made a proposal a few weeks back about the header
   matter that we use and the use of /history
   … it got thumbs ups but I want to turn it into a call for
   consensus

   nigel: in AOB, we have a DST switch soon
   … I made a proposal
   … anything else
   … ?
   … no, let's move on

  TTML2 2nd Ed

   nigel: Glenn updated the IR earlier in the week
   … sharing that his implementation passes all the validation
   tests
   … he's moving on to the presentation tests next
   … that's 1 implementation
   … I don't know what's the likelihood of having a 2nd
   implementation
   … it's getting to the point where we need to look into it
   … I encourage everybody to look into that
   … we'll review in 2 meetings
   … there is a placeholder for tts:direction and tts:writingMode

   pal: I read the entire thread
   … and it comes down to the statement from Glenn
   … that it cannot be mapped to CSS
   … I'm preparing an example and if I'm proven wrong we can move
   on

   cyril: I have a conflict next week

   pal: I don't think it's going to work

   nigel: not ideal ...

   pal: we could push it back

   nigel: I wondered if it was a topic to raise in the joint call
   with CSS
   … they've thought about it carefully and we need to understand
   it

   cyril: Glenn's presence is more important than mine

   atai: AFAIK, pierre's goal was to reach a conclusion next week
   … if you agree that we can have a tentative conclusion
   … we should get an agreement with those in the call next week

   nigel: we'll discuss with whoever is available next week
   … and then discuss it with CSS

   pal: I think without cyril present we won't be able to reach a
   conclusion

   cyril: I'm sure you can reach a decision without me

   pal: the results of the discussion will likely be implemented
   in imsc.js
   … and I wouldn't want your colleagues to say they disagree with
   it

   nigel: it is a complicated area that needs careful thought
   … we need to unpack and understand why we are doing things
   differently from CSS

  Virtual TPAC 2020 Planning

   nigel: we need to solidify the set of topics we want to discuss
   in our joint meetings
   … the APA discussion, they've invited us to that, so they will
   lead the discussion, we don't need to drive the agenda
   … the CSS discussion, we have issue 140
   … we've got the viewport unit issue in WebVTT
   … and I will add TTML2 1211
   … if anybody has any others, please add them in the next few
   days to issue 140
   … and finally, we are tracking the joint meeting with MEIG and
   Media WG
   … with issue 139
   … the agenda for that is not yet there?
   … there are 6 chairs
   … we will need to select 1 chair driving the meeting
   … and we need the chairs to come up with an agenda

   nigel: I discussed with Chris and it's my job to distribute the
   information to this group
   … I don't have an opinion about which chair should do it
   … there are many joint meetings going on and not much for us
   … happy if any chair steps in
   … we scheduled that for 2h
   … we expect several topics: data cue, text track cue end time,
   text track cue HTML api ...
   … when there is api changes, we need to decide which group
   should do
   … and given that we don't do much APIs, I think it'd be better
   done in the Media WG
   … the other topic is exposing cues through MSE
   … that's all from memory, let me confirm
   … anything else?
   … we don't have a group meeting scheduled at TPAC

   cyril: we meet every week, TPAC or not TPAC

   nigel: I have created issues for meetings on the 15th and 22nd
   … for regular calls

   issues/141

     [12] https://github.com/w3c/ttwg/issues/141


   nigel: but it does not mean we need to have them if they clash
   with other TPAC meetings
   … if anybody has any clash, that's fine, let me know
   … I'm proposing that the week of the TPAC breakout session, our
   meeting will clash and it's the week of the DST transition
   … I'm proposing that we don't hold our meeting

   cyril: fine with me

  TTML Profiles Registry

   nigel: the situation is: we have no open PR, we have 1 issue
   about the wrong edition of TTML1 being cited, there is a respec
   warning on the editor's draft
   … because the version of respec has been deprecated
   … and there is the other issue from Mike, about the MIME codecs
   parameters from ISOBMFF
   … my proposal is to fix the edition and respec version
   … and then publish the result of that as a new WG note

   Mike: good to me

   nigel: I will do the tweaks first and do the CfC over the
   reflector

   Mike: they are clearly editorial, we could start the clock
   today

   nigel: indeed
   … just looked at the issue again, do we need to make that
   change (issue #77 in TTWG)
   … the text in the profile registry under media type
   registration says : this updated registration supercedes the
   one in TTML1 1st ed after updated by TTML1 2nd ed
   … the text is actually factually accurate
   … however there is a reference from the profile parameter to
   the ttp:profile attribute
   … and that should be updated to point to the 3rd edition

   <nigel> > This updated definition supersedes the initial
   registration information specified in [TTML1-1e], Appendix C,
   as updated by [TTML1-2e], Appendix C.

   Mike: the sentences that say "this text ought to be other there
   ..." is not relevant anymore
   … it doesn't matter any more
   … maybe then that is less editorial

   nigel: we did not make normative change so far, so no need to
   republish with IANA
   … if we do change this, there would be extra work
   … I'm inclined to say that this is not so important
   … we could publish without making this change

   Mike: yes
   … the changes we made are important
   … we need to publish soon

   nigel: agree

   PROPOSAL: we publish the current ED of TTML Profiles Registry
   as a WG Note subject to editorial changes (e.g. update ReSpec)

   nigel: any questions? comments? objections? approvals?

   Mike: I support it

   cyril: +1

   <atsushi> +1

   <atai> +1

   Resolution: we publish the current ED of TTML Profiles Registry
   as a WG Note subject to editorial changes (e.g. update ReSpec)

   nigel: we have a decision policy, 2 week period, if no
   objection, that resolution is a WG decision and we'll hand over
   to Atsushi

  Adopt /history in place of Previous Version for all future
  publications #145

   github: [13]https://github.com/w3c/ttwg/issues/145


     [13] https://github.com/w3c/ttwg/issues/145


   nigel: we have 2 thumbs up and it is my proposal
   … it's about changing the header matter
   … instead of having 'previous' link, we'll have a static link
   … you'll be able to see the different editions, CR, PRs ...
   … I'd like to propose that we do across every document we
   publish under /TR
   … that is my proposal
   … opened on Aug 20
   … I would like to do a CfC now
   … if there is no objection in 2 weeks, we'll have a decision

   <atsushi> [14]https://www.w3.org/TR/css-text-4/


     [14] https://www.w3.org/TR/css-text-4/


   atsushi: in some cases, for ex CSS, it lists multiple previous
   versions in the header part
   … but usually we juste have only 1 previous version in our
   publications in TR space
   … it's replacing this with /history link

   SUMMARY: this proposal becomes a decision if no objection
   received by Oct 15th

  AOB - DST switch

   nigel: the plan is not to have a meeting on the 29th of october
   … then on the 1st of nov, the DST switch happens in the US
   … neither Europe nor USA will be in DST
   … the person affected most is Atsushi
   … because you don't have DST

   atsushi: Europe change happens Oct 25th
   … US on Nov 1st
   … there is no meeting on 29th

   cyril: the question is what is the time after everybody has
   switched

   atsushi: I prefer alignment with DST

   <atai> +1

   nigel: the proposal is that for our meetings after Nov 1st, we
   keep the same local time in US and Europe

   <atai> +1

   nigel: this would make it 1h later in Japan

   nigel: no objections
   … the UTC time of the meeting will change, to be 1h later

   Mike: it's much clearer to say we are locked to Boston time

   nigel: I completely disagree on how to phrase it

   Mike: as you wish

   nigel: the effect on us all is that it's going to be the same
   exact time for all of us except Atsushi

   nigel: meeting adjourned
