Survey results not at consensus. See results for details.
18:29:17 [KFord]
KF: We could either agree that people won't get confused or we could add a statement to help avoid confusion around the table caption tag.
18:29:44 [KFord]
JA: I think this confusion was around the way the definition was presented.. Explains further.
18:30:57 [AllanJ]
caption: An equivalent alternative that takes the form of text presented and synchronized with time-based media to provide not only the speech, but also non-speech information conveyed through sound, including meaningful sound effects and identification of speakers. In some countries, the term "subtitle" is used to refer to dialogue only and "captions" is used as the term for dialogue plus...
18:30:59 [AllanJ]
...sounds and speaker identification. In other countries, "subtitle" (or its translation) is used to refer to both. Open captions are captions that are always rendered with a visual track; they cannot be turned off. Closed captions are captions that may be turned on and off. The captions requirements of this document assume that the user agent can recognize the captions as such. Note: Other...
18:31:01 [AllanJ]
...terms that include the word "caption" may have different meanings in this document. For instance, a "table caption" is a title for the table, often positioned graphically above or below the table. In this document, the intended meaning of "caption" will be clear from context.
18:32:52 [KFord]
More discussion around will people find caption confusing.
18:33:03 [KFord]
JA: Captioning is the act of creating captions.
18:33:32 [KFord]
JS: The act is U.S. usage I think.
18:33:48 [KFord]
SH: I think o f captioning as being time based and caption the stuff you add.
18:34:11 [KFord]
JA: Any objections to the definition at this point?
18:34:20 [KFord]
none heard.
