FYI: new Web Media Text Tracks Community Group (was Re: [f2f] minutes from the first F2F meeting in Hollywood - 21-22 September 2011)

Hi group,

As recorded in the f2f minutes [1] and the IG report [2], there was a
plan about a possible Community Group to have discussion on text
tracks for video on the Web, applied to captioning, subtitling, etc.

And the group has been recently created as follows:
[[
This group will work on text tracks for video on the Web, applied to
captioning, subtitling and other purposes. This group plans to work
initially on:

1) Documenting a semantic model underlying the caption formats in use,
notably TTML, CEA 608/708, EBU STL, and WebVTT.

2) Creating a community specification for WebVTT.

3) Defining the mappings between WebVTT and some selected formats,
including at least TTML (W3C/SMPTE), and CEA 608/708.

4) Creating web developer reference and tutorial material, including
worked examples.

5) Creating a test suite and/or tools.

A possible transition to REC-track for some of these document(s) is
envisaged and that possibility will be used to guide the work and
procedures.
