16:09:01 <Zakim> agendum 2 -- Action Items -- taken up [from PaulG]
16:09:31 <PaulG> janina: start planning for TPAC
16:09:46 <PaulG> janina: especially with Summer vacations coming
16:12:24 <PaulG> Neil: are we worried about "variants" of TTS voices (especially for older engines)?

16:14:03 <NeilS> present+
16:17:06 <PaulG> PaulG: our goal should be to preserve author intent in the markup and not rely on obscure posInteger attribute values as seen in "variant"
16:17:47 <PaulG> PaulG: some engines support something but it's not in the docs
16:18:13 <PaulG> Neil: I worry about getting really good TTS support for these things
16:19:19 <PaulG> NeilS: many TTS voices are very robotic sounding (required for high speed)
16:22:22 <PaulG> we may be able to map things like prosidy, tone, etc. to "child" where authors can define "child" or a set of feature mappings or default and it's up to the TTS engine to negotiate that
16:23:52 <PaulG> (reminder the alternate proposal draft is here: https://gist.github.com/AutoSponge/f68870d00b73eaccecb451eef4c3da1d)
16:24:13 <PaulG> janina: I'm working on my action items. I will update soon.
