14:10:26 [trackbot]
Date: 07 September 2017

14:11:59 [nigel]
Regrets: Andreas
14:12:01 [nigel]
Chair: Nigel
14:12:04 [nigel]

14:12:24 [nigel]
Nigel: Apologies for the late start!
14:13:01 [nigel]
Topic: This meeting
14:14:07 [nigel]
Nigel: Today, we have: TPAC (including demos?), IMSC, TTML.
14:14:22 [nigel]
Thierry: Also David Singer requested I send a reminder for the WebVTT review. It sounds
14:14:35 [nigel]
.. reasonable but I want everybody's opinion because it's a bit of a clash with the recent
14:14:44 [nigel]
.. request we've had for TTML2, but I think we have no other solution.
14:14:56 [nigel]
Nigel: Okay we'll add WebVTT to the agenda.
14:15:16 [nigel]
Nigel: Any other business or particular points to cover today?
14:15:57 [nigel]
Present+ Pierre, Mike
14:16:51 [nigel]
Pierre: I need to drop off no later than 1 hour from now.
14:17:02 [nigel]
Mike: I'm also conflicted at the top of the hour.
14:17:08 [nigel]
Nigel: Okay let's go then!
14:17:13 [nigel]
Topic: TPAC
14:17:49 [nigel]
Nigel: Dominique reminded me that in June I offered that the TTWG would like to present a demo during the TPAC demo session on the Wednesday.
14:19:04 [nigel]
.. What I proposed originally was that we demonstrate the styling features in TTML that
14:19:18 [nigel]
.. we have and would like to see implemented also in CSS, as it's a good forum for
14:19:31 [nigel]
.. disseminating that information and driving interest.
14:19:53 [nigel]
.. What do you think? Is that a good idea?
14:20:00 [pal]
pal has joined #tt
14:20:59 [nigel]
.. I don't mind doing it, especially if I can have some help putting it together - I guess
14:21:10 [nigel]
.. the thing to do would be to show the features that we think are somehow highest in
14:21:13 [nigel]
.. priority.
14:21:19 [nigel]
Pierre: Okay, yes.
14:23:01 [nigel]
Pierre: What about using imsc.js as the basis for that? Showing all the workarounds we
14:23:08 [nigel]
.. had to do to achieve the desired effects?
14:23:12 [nigel]
Nigel: Yes, sounds good.
14:23:25 [nigel]
Pierre: If we just complain for 30 minutes it wouldn't look great!
14:23:29 [nigel]
Nigel: +1
14:23:48 [nigel]
Pierre: We can think about that, find a way to make it both fun and instructive, and
14:23:55 [nigel]
.. highlight things we'd like to do that are difficult now.
14:24:02 [nigel]
Nigel: Sounds good to me.
14:24:17 [nigel]
Pierre: We can work offline and see if we can find a way to do it.
14:24:25 [nigel]
Nigel: Okay, let's do it. Anyone else want to be involved?
14:25:20 [nigel]
Nigel: Moving on to the agenda.
14:25:29 [nigel]
-> https://www.w3.org/wiki/TimedText/tpac2017 TPAC TTWG schedule wiki page
14:25:50 [nigel]
Nigel: Thanks for adding your names!
14:26:45 [nigel]
Nigel: Looking at the agenda, I don't think anyone has added anything yet, so please could
14:26:48 [nigel]
.. we focus on it next week?
14:27:18 [nigel]
ACTION: nigel Add TTWG TPAC2017 wiki page to next agenda by 2017-09-12
14:27:19 [trackbot]
Created ACTION-505 - Add ttwg tpac2017 wiki page to next agenda by 2017-09-12 [on Nigel Megitt - due 2017-09-14].
14:29:45 [nigel]
Topic: IMSC
14:30:09 [nigel]
Nigel: I wanted to note that on behalf of BBC I've posted our gstreamer patch as an
14:30:18 [nigel]
.. implementation on the implementation report page for IMSC 1.0.1
14:30:23 [nigel]
Pierre: Thanks for posting that
14:31:47 [nigel]
Nigel: It'd be good to have another pair of eyes verify the screenshot, because there's
14:32:05 [nigel]
.. subtlety there and it's good to have an independent view not from the contributing
14:32:07 [nigel]
.. organisation.
14:32:11 [nigel]
Pierre: I'll have a look.
14:32:13 [nigel]
Nigel: Thank you
14:32:25 [nigel]
Glenn: The two screengrabs look fine to me.
14:32:30 [nigel]
Nigel: Great, thank you.
14:33:06 [nigel]
.. Now the pressure is on to find a second implementation...
14:33:54 [nigel]
Glenn: We have support for activeArea already in TTV but it's just parsing it and verifying
14:33:56 [nigel]
.. its correctness.
14:34:03 [nigel]
Nigel: Formally, I think that's all that's needed.
14:34:31 [nigel]
.. If you could send notification of that formally to the group that would be really helpful.
14:34:35 [nigel]
Glenn: Okay, sure.
14:34:38 [nigel]
Nigel: Thank you.
14:35:19 [nigel]
Topic: TTML2 Review
14:35:23 [nigel]
action-503?
14:35:23 [trackbot]
action-503 -- Thierry Michel to Send a reminder to groups for ttml2 review by 8th september -- due 2017-08-17 -- OPEN
14:35:23 [trackbot]
http://www.w3.org/AudioVideo/TT/tracker/actions/503
14:35:33 [nigel]
Nigel: Thierry, I think you've done this?
14:35:35 [nigel]
Thierry: Yes I have.
14:35:39 [nigel]
Nigel: Thank you!
14:35:42 [nigel]
close action-503
14:35:42 [trackbot]
Closed action-503.
14:37:05 [nigel]
Glenn: I've added horizontal review "comment disposed" to the 8 closed issues previously
14:37:20 [nigel]
.. labelled "horizontal review comment". This marks disposal of comments received during
14:37:40 [nigel]
.. the review process. For the others it wouldn't harm to have a label indicating that the
14:37:55 [nigel]
.. WG has reviewed it.
14:38:16 [nigel]
Nigel: Do you mean to indicate the WG has agreed the disposition and we are awaiting confirmation from the commenter?
14:38:46 [nigel]
Glenn: It would probably be useful to note that the WG reviewed the non-review issues
14:39:09 [nigel]
.. from within the group also. There were a number of issues posted by members that were
14:39:25 [nigel]
.. not marked as review comments originally. I'd say most of our issues in the past have
14:39:28 [nigel]
.. fallen into that category.
14:39:45 [nigel]
.. The alternative is I change the new label just to "WG disposed" and use that for all of
14:39:50 [nigel]
.. the items that the WG has reviewed.
14:40:31 [nigel]
.. It was not my intent to mark that we have had confirmation of the disposition from the commenter,
14:40:50 [nigel]
.. just that the WG has agreed what to do.
14:41:42 [nigel]
Nigel: My interpretation is that we need a different label for "WG disposition agreed" and the
14:42:08 [nigel]
.. current "comment disposed" issue means that we have given a sufficient opportunity for
14:42:41 [nigel]
.. the original commenter to feed back on the WG disposition.
14:42:59 [nigel]
.. The main user for these labels will likely be Thierry. Does this make sense to you Thierry?
14:43:17 [nigel]
Thierry: Yes, I'll have a look and check it makes sense and tweak the labels if needed.
14:44:11 [nigel]
Nigel: It might be useful to put together a wiki page explaining the process we are using
14:44:30 [nigel]
.. and what labels we are putting on GitHub issues to track the (not particularly changed)
14:44:45 [nigel]
.. process instead of using Dom's old web tool.
14:44:59 [nigel]
Thierry: Okay, you can give me an action for that - I've done some work already on WebVTT similarly.
14:45:20 [nigel]
Action: Thierry Draft a wiki page explaining our review and disposition steps and labels
14:45:22 [trackbot]
Created ACTION-506 - Draft a wiki page explaining our review and disposition steps and labels [on Thierry Michel - due 2017-09-14].
14:45:44 [nigel]
Thierry: Once we have these labels on GitHub we will be able to filter on the labels and
14:46:04 [nigel]
.. generate automatic dispositions of comments, or at least a list of agreed and not agreed comments?
14:46:08 [nigel]
Nigel: Exactly, yes.
14:47:27 [nigel]
Topic: WebVTT review feedback
14:47:47 [nigel]
Thierry: Nothing really exciting here! As Nigel said last week, I had reminded the TTML2
14:48:00 [nigel]
.. review to the W3C groups we have dependencies with and horizontal review and external
14:48:12 [nigel]
.. groups, and TTML2 review ends on Sep 30. David Singer saw this and our discussion and
14:48:24 [nigel]
.. asked me if I could do the same for WebVTT, and I think that's fair enough. The review
14:48:38 [nigel]
.. ends on 22nd September for WebVTT, but last week Nigel you had raised a concern about
14:48:53 [nigel]
.. having two reviews simultaneously and that it could be confusing to receive such requests
14:49:06 [nigel]
.. for review for two different formats within the same week but I don't see how we can
14:49:12 [nigel]
.. avoid that unfortunately.
14:49:16 [nigel]
Nigel: Neither do I!
14:49:30 [nigel]
Thierry: So far we have no comments from external groups either for TTML2 or WebVTT.
14:49:43 [nigel]
.. One or two groups have responded that they will process it during an October meeting,
14:50:00 [nigel]
.. but that's the only kind of answer we got (for both TTML2 and WebVTT), so a reminder
14:50:04 [nigel]
.. is certainly necessary.
14:50:14 [nigel]
.. My question is: is anyone against me taking that action?
14:50:27 [nigel]
.. (but I think it would be unfair to say no!)
14:50:51 [nigel]
Nigel: It seems that nobody wishes to be unfair, so I think you can go ahead Thierry.
14:51:12 [nigel]
Thierry: Okay. Also Nigel just to mention that Daniel was a bit surprised about all the
14:51:28 [nigel]
.. messages to team-liaisons, so he asked for a single summary email listing all the groups
14:51:43 [nigel]
.. to which the reminders had been sent. So I will not copy team-liaisons on purpose this time.
14:51:51 [nigel]
Nigel: OK, thanks, that makes sense.
14:52:52 [nigel]
Topic: Meeting close
14:53:17 [nigel]
Nigel: We've completed our agenda for today, and have no other business so I'll adjourn
14:53:36 [nigel]
.. the meeting. Thanks everyone. Next week, let's discuss TPAC agenda please.
