16:06:40 [mateus]
avneeshsingh: there is a new work item from the EPUB WG, such as what we mean by audio books, video, read aloud, etc., and we discussed this in relation to the EU a11y act...
16:07:03 [mateus]
... but all of this information is very generic, not necessarily EPUB-related, so we wanted to propose this as a new item in the PCG
16:07:17 [mateus]
... a small document to explain audio books, audio overlays, TTS, etc.

16:10:48 [mateus]
... how about the ongoing work on writing modes led by MURATA?
16:12:14 [guillian_hetzler__]
guillian_hetzler__ has joined #publishingcg
16:12:23 [mateus]
MURATA: we need write access to the task force folder on the repository... we don't expect many changes to the specification, but the goal is to publish the work as a community group note... to allow those who can't read vertical writing to be able to choose horizontal writing for Japanese novels

Makoto: Did my email to the group reach you?
16:14:10 [wolfgang]
... 3 sets of docs from Japanese Consortium - plan to publish a request for metadata - some preparatory docs linked from Makoto's email
16:14:25 [avneeshsingh]

16:14:43 [wolfgang]
... going to submit issues for schema.org , also for ONIX, but we need no specs

Wendy: I don't believe there is anything new - working towards better testing - we're discussing page numbering at the moment
16:20:21 [wolfgang]
Ivan: a number of technical issues in the WG space - need more technical input to make a decision - invites CG members to chime in or sharing of experiencing with systems
16:20:54 [tzviya]
q+
16:21:32 [wolfgang]
... open issues around the usage of scripts, where the boundaries are, issue of origin - issues for many years - we are looking for a very good answer
16:22:36 [wolfgang]
... do we allow HTML 5 or not - the WG doesn't have any good arguments for or con - issues with scripts that don't work with XHTML, but HTML only
16:23:22 [wolfgang]
... maybe, Wendy, we could make a list where we would love to have CG input
16:23:30 [mateus]
ack tzviya
16:24:11 [wolfgang]
Tzviya: WG needs tests to programmatically see if spec is correct
16:24:36 [wolfgang]
Mateus: should we ask folks to got to the repo of the WG
16:25:22 [wolfgang]
Ivan: specific repo for EPUB spec - EPUBS/specs
16:25:25 [mateus]
If you're want to help out with these issues on specs: https://github.com/w3c/epub-specs/
16:25:49 [avneeshsingh]
Periodically we can collect the issues in which we need CG input and send to publishing CG mailing list
16:26:14 [wolfgang]
mateus: no new issues to cover today
16:27:38 [wolfgang]
Vincent: following all discussions since IDPF - back from a long year of absence - production platform for EPUB for scholarship brands
