This may be of interest, as it's somewhat broader in scope than TV
remote events in particular.

I've been speaking recently with the chair of the DVB SI working
group, which has the ultimate responsibility for (amongst other
things) the dvb: URI scheme. I got in touch in relation to
draft-mcroberts-dvb-uri, which is a small step in an attempt to bring
the Internet and Broadcast communities a little closer together in
this area.

It's been expressed to me that there is a positive attitude towards
collaborating with the W3C and the IETF (as appropriate) and they
would help to fulfil a "bridging role" between the communities. I can
pass on contact details if appropriate? (AIUI also, DVB has some
responsibilities conferred upon it by other broadcast systems to avoid
duplicating efforts in some areas).

All the best,

Mo.
