... good contact point on MSE/EME
... any open issues?

colin: don't think so
... document updated
... any questions?

<colin> https://btotr.github.io/cloud-browser-tf/

alex: we can look at the document

kaz: Colin, do you want to go through the document?

alex: maybe we can ask the main IG for comments?

colin: use cases, accessibility requirements to be added before that

alex: MSE/EME considerations also to be added
... also need broadcast use cases
... should I put that as part of the impact use cases?

colin: tuner capability?

alex: there is an issue with working locally

colin: make sense to add to the document

alex: part of the impact cases

colin: will update the document and we can discuss it

alex: looking for something
... list of related groups
... how Cloud Browser would impact those groups

colin: use cases we showed as impact cases
... would be beneficial
... maybe a separate section on that

<alex> https://www.w3.org/2011/webtv/wiki/Main_Page/Cloud_Browser_TF/Specs/TVControlAPI

alex: would identify which work is already done

colin: that should be useful

kaz: please note the TV Control WG itself has been closed

colin: right
... but the content is still useful

alex: had an action item to review accessibility use cases

chris: have some high level topics on accessibility
... captioning, interoperability, sign language, etc.
... would like feed back on how deeper to dive into

https://www.w3.org/2011/webtv/wiki/Media_capabilities

chris: how we should proceed?
... certain things Cloud Browser should support

chris: let's say you're watching TV with your family
... some people might not be enjoyable

colin: not Cloud Browser-specific
... we can have a PC/TV on which a browser works
... doesn't matter if the browser is (usual) local browser or cloud browser

alex: we used to have second screen use case
... that was not really Cloud Browser-specific
... and we had removed it (from our scope)

colin: we thought second screen could have been part of Cloud Browser discussion
... what about accessibility?
... second screen could help
... accessibility problems
... so this kind of use cases are useful

chris: yes
... what if someone with disability watches TV
... might have difficulty
... we can provide control via second screen

colin: yes
... that's why we need some solution
... second screen could be a simple solution for that

chris: second screen interact/orchestrate with TV

colin: second screen can interact with orchestration

chris: that is important for me to make the system accessible
... touch point for accessibility

colin: we didn't include that point in the Cloud Browser Architecture

chris: there are many parallel discussions by related groups according to the main M&E IG call
... user device becomes a controller for TV
... could be a use case for accessibility

colin: agree

chris: ok
... so what do you want for me?

colin: use case for accessing streaming data

chris: can put the idea together

AOB

colin: white paper on Cloud Browser
... tried to explain Cloud Browser from application aspect
... what should we do in case of EME
... responsibility of client side or clide side?
... concept of device
... not clear enough

alex: should we go into the detail?

colin: looking into a proposal
... a white paper
... needed to explain the concept of Cloud Browser

alex: useful exercise
... browser framework is very client-centric
... single IP address requirement

colin: what we don't expect in our draft
... we need to explain more

alex: do you propose we update the architecture draft?

colin: could add description to the draft

alex: ok

TPAC logistics
