Multi-device Timing CG: Conference appearances

Hi all.

Njål and I will be around to present the Multi-device Timing CG as well as
demonstrating our implementation of Shared Motion at the WWW2015
http://www.www2015.it/ in Florence. We (as partners in the MediaScape EU
project) have a slot on the W3C track
http://www.w3.org/2015/05/w3c-track.html 20 May (11.00-12.40).

If you happen to be at the www2015 we hope to see you there. If you have a
colleague that will go, please share the word :)

Also, we are presenting a paper at the MediaSync2015 workshop in Brussels
https://sites.google.com/site/mediasynchronization/mediasync2015 3 June in
conjunction with TVX Conference http://tvx2015.com/ (4 and 5 June), and
possibly giving some demos also during the main conference demo session (4
June) as well.

The paper explores an important topic for the multi-device timing group
(see charter), how the Web's support for composition of time-sensitive
components is currently weak (both in single-device and multi-device
media), and how it may be improved by the introduction of the
HTMLTimingObject. Furthermore, we briefly outline what needs to happen with
HTMLMediaElements and HTMLTrackElements in order to improve the support for
precisely timed operation and easy composition. These are upcoming
tasks/discussions in the Multi-device Timing CG.

The title of the paper. "Multi-device Linear Composition on the Web;
Enabling Multi-device Linear Media with HTMLTimingObject and Shared Motion".
