Call for Review: TTML Profiles for Internet Media Subtitles and Captions
1.0 (IMSC1) Proposed Recommendation Published
8 March 2016
<https://www.w3.org/blog/news/archives/5308>
The Timed Text Working Group has published a Proposed
Recommendation of "TTML Profiles for Internet Media Subtitles and
Captions 1.0 (IMSC1)." This document specifies two profiles of
TTML1: a text-only profile and an image-only profile. These
profiles are intended to be used across subtitle and caption
delivery applications worldwide, thereby simplifying
interoperability, consistent rendering and conversion to other
subtitling and captioning formats. Comments are welcome through 08
April.

HTML 5.1 Draft Updated
11 March 2016
<https://www.w3.org/blog/news/archives/5313>
The Web Platform Working Group has published an updated Working
Draft of "HTML 5.1." In this version of the 5th major version of
the Hypertext Markup Language (HTML), the core language of the
World Wide Web, new features continue to be introduced to help Web
application authors, new elements continue to be introduced based
on research into prevailing authoring practices, and special
attention continues to be given to defining clear conformance
criteria for user agents in an effort to improve interoperability.

Please, read more about the group’s plans to establish a regular
rhythm of publication and how the group is working toward an HTML
5.1 Recommendation later this year.

W3C Invites Implementations of WebIDL Level 1
8 March 2016
<https://www.w3.org/blog/news/archives/5305>
The Web Platform Working Group invites implementation of the
Candidate Recommendation of "WebIDL Level 1." This document
defines an interface definition language, Web IDL, that can be
used to describe interfaces that are intended to be implemented in
web browsers. Web IDL is an IDL variant with a number of features
that allow the behavior of common script objects in the web
platform to be specified more readily. How interfaces described
with Web IDL correspond to constructs within ECMAScript execution
environments is also detailed in this document. It is expected
that this document acts as a guide to implementors of
already-published specifications, and that newly published
specifications reference this document to ensure conforming
implementations of interfaces are interoperable.
