Dear Advisory Committee Representative,
[This announcement will be forwarded to W3C group chairs]

The Timed Text Working Group charter [1] is hereby extended until 30 
June 2022.

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.

Advisory Committee Review of the proposed charter [2] ended in March 
with three unresolved Formal Objections by Google, Apple, and Mozilla. 
This extension will give W3C additional time to issue the decision on 
the Formal Objections against the proposed Working Group charter.

[...]
More information about the Timed Text Working Group can be found on its 
home page [3].

The group is currently chaired by Gary Katsevman (W3C Invited Expert), 
Nigel Megitt (British Broadcasting Corporation).

If you have any questions or need further information, please contact 
Team Contact Atsushi Shimono <atsushi@w3.org>.

This extension follows section 4.5 of the W3C Process Document:

For Tim Berners-Lee, W3C Director, and
