Re: To discuss the title, I opend my draft

Hi Futomi san,

>From this discussion, now I supposed that the thing which you were aimed for in this document was 
feature which I interpretd. And I also supposed that it was a subset of HTML5 in wide senses.

On the other hand, the fullset here (as I interpretd) is a set of greatest common features that is 
supported with all the well known web browsers. Of course it has many ambiguity. Such as, what is 
common browser? Whether it includes SmartPhones or only PCs? etc.  But it will become the common 
recognition roughly. And it will be the almost same as HTML5 in wide sense. At least it will be a 
big feature set than it is mentioned in this document.

On the other hand, in this document and recent discussion about it, providing a profile of the 
subset against aforementioned fullset is a main topic.

I think that it may become the standard that we can consider to be a player in conformity with 
profile for web based signage although this is subset. In this point, I concern about fragmentation 
the Web. This is because, in spite of contents to work on well known Web browsers, there are cases 
that this contents does not work in the players in accordance with only this subset.

If this document does not intend to promote the player of such a HTML5 subset player, we should make
 the object of this document to contents. 

In the item of "may" in standards for players, a player does not need to implement the 
specifications. On the other hand, it is almost necessary for a player to implement the 
specifications in the item of "may" in a standard for contents. In this way, standards for contents 
is harder for players (UAs).

# Of course I think that there is the choice to prescribe profile unlike HTML5 of the wide sense  
(includes subset of HTML5) after having considered an effect in the busines.
