RE: [profile] Profile spec title

Why not:

"Web Media profile"
Guidelines for integration of interactive media services in a  
browser-based environment

...and point out the video stuff within the document structure.

Thanks!

Subject: Re: [profile] Profile spec title

I'm not convinced about the world "platform", it seems to imply a lot more  
than what we are aiming too.
And since guidelines it seems to be used in W3C for a type of documents  
that is different from our document I'll than propose to stick to  
"profile".

Even though I agree with Robin that profile tend to generate bad feelings,  
at the end of the day a profile is what we are doing.
And anyway I hope people will not judge the book from its cover.

Finally, as a more generic alternative for TV I can propose media.

So the title would be

"Web Media profile"
Guidelines for integration of interactive video services in a  
browser-based environment

If nobody disagree I'll use this. Hopefully we can have more discussions  
on other topics ;)
