The W3C SYMM Working Group has released a new version of the Synchronized Multimedia Integration Language (SMIL) Boston Specification, a W3C Working Draft 22 June 2000. available at: http://www.w3.org/TR/smil-boston/ This document specifies the "Boston" version of the Synchronized Multimedia Integration Language (SMIL, pronounced "smile"). SMIL Boston has the following two design goals: Define a simple XML-based language that allows authors to write interactive multimedia presentations. Using SMIL Boston, an author can describe the temporal behavior of a multimedia presentation, associate hyperlinks with media objects and describe the layout of the presentation on a screen. Allow reusing of SMIL syntax and semantics in other XML-based languages, in particular those who need to represent timing and synchronization. For example, SMIL Boston components should be used for integrating timing into XHTML [XHTML10]. _______________________________________________________________ Thierry MICHEL tmichel@w3.org W3C / INRIA +33 (0) 4 92 38 79 87 2004, Route des Lucioles BP 93 06902 Sophia Antipolis Cedex, France _______________________________________________________________
