Re: VTT authoring guide on Web Platform Docs?

Great to hear your interest!

I would indeed encourage to write about implemented reality, even
though that will probably continue to improve over the next few
months.

You could explain the features as specified and then explain what
works in the browsers now.

This could, in fact, contribute to the testing efforts of the <track>
element in HTML, see http://www.w3.org/html/wg/wiki/Testing .

Cheers,
Silvia.

There are some possible starting points, below, though of course to use any of this material we’d need to work with the authors and get permission.
