Any opposition? 16:07:37 q+ 16:07:41 +1 16:07:42 ack garth 16:08:39 garth: TOC is an ordered list; for many of these supplemental contents there is no specific order 16:09:03 wendyreid: if we don't put it in the TOC it is not referenceable for a user agent 16:09:23 q+ 16:09:29 garth: putting in TOC implies an order that it may not have 16:09:38 q+ 16:09:41 ack Avneesh 16:10:07 avneesh: it has some order; not entirely random 16:10:29 alt text html file follows dame principle, must be in TOC 16:10:30 ack marisa 16:10:56 marisa: reminds me of landmarks in EPUB - not necessarily inherent order 16:11:25 don't agree that supp content needs same treatment as alt content 16:11:55 q+ 16:11:58 wendyreid: supp content can be a list of charts or pics of an author 16:12:00 ack Avneesh 16:12:05 q+ 16:12:09 avneesh: concept is similar 16:12:13 ack ivan 16:12:23 timCole has joined #pwg 16:12:38 ivan: why is supp material so special that having it listed in the resources is not enough? 16:12:41 +1 to Ivan 16:12:48 +1 to resources 16:12:55 q+ 16:13:15 wwendyreid: how should resources be represented in reading order? 16:13:22 ack George 16:13:35 q+ 16:14:01 q+ 16:14:04 ack ivan 16:14:06 q+ 16:14:07 george: resources always referenced by something; having them in TOC is provides standard mechanism to get at them 16:14:34 ivan: resources is a list of references to files, each of which can have one to many rel values 16:14:55 q- 16:15:07 from that point on it's up to the user agent to find 16:15:17 george: rel value is in the manifest 16:15:31 ivan: yes, there may be 16:15:43 https://github.com/w3c/wpub/issues/405 16:16:08 ack duga 16:16:49 brady: want to avoid getting bad audiobook TOCs, prefer it be an optional requirement because reading system may be able to impose its own more accurate TOC 16:17:39 q+ 16:17:41 ...TOC should not be required just to have a list of supp materials 16:17:43 ack laurent_ 16:17:43 Brady has a very good point. 16:18:46 laurant: agreed, for textbooks we have a special rel called cover, that allows us to put it in a TOC or not. if there is a small set of supp content that we always find in audiobooks, let's use rel values like we use cover 16:18:51 TOC should be meaningful and something a RS can trust. 16:19:27 wendyreid: instead of a required TOC of supp content, we require rel value that is applicable to that type of content 16:19:37 q+ 16:20:17 george: having a TOC that, when present, is good and utilizable, sounds like putting a requirement on the reading system to use it if present 16:20:49 ack marisa 16:20:50 q+ 16:20:54 wendyreid: if the publisher has cgone to the effort, it is likely that the reading system should pay attention to it. but can't define "good" TOC 16:21:29 ack laurent_ 16:21:35 marisa: it might be confusing if treatment is different accross reading systems 16:22:14 laurant: we are living with that with covers currently - reading systems deal with differently 16:22:33 q+ to ask about multiple rel's, and publisher capabilities 16:22:35 s/laurant/laurent/ 16:22:40 ...if the rel value is not in the TOC, then the reading system won't see it? best practice instead of requirement 16:22:41 ack bigbluehat 16:22:41 bigbluehat, you wanted to ask about multiple rel's, and publisher capabilities 16:23:54 q+ 16:23:58 ack laurent_ 16:24:01 bigbluehat: not necessarily an ordered list; publishers can't define order if we just have resources floating - needs to be expressible by publishers 16:24:30 q+ 16:24:34 ack bigbluehat 16:24:39 laurant: need to define what is wanted - are there other things besides booklets? 16:24:50 q+ 16:25:20 q+ 16:25:24 ack Avneesh 16:25:25 bigbluehat: if this is a foundational data model that we are going to share, we may have publications with a whole host of supp content 16:25:52 q- 16:25:55 avneesh: if there is an order that publisher want to define for supp content TOC is compulsory 16:26:32 q+ 16:26:36 ack ivan 16:27:56 q+ 16:27:57 ivan: if there is supp content that has an order, there is no need to make TOC is compulsory, because that is what will be used. the toc doesn't really make sense for content that is not in order. unnecessary to require TOC if x and y are true, for example. 16:28:05 ack George 16:28:39 q+ 16:29:23 george: consistency between base spec an audiobook spec would be great, as much as possible. 16:29:27 ack duga 16:30:02 duga: the more I hear about potential use cases, the less I think we should use TOC for suupp materials, and tackle when we discuss synchronized media 16:30:50 ... textbook and audio appear at the same time, for example 16:30:55 q+ to say yes 16:31:00 ack marisa 16:31:00 marisa, you wanted to say yes 16:31:33 garth has joined #pwg 16:32:01 marisa: we have an ussue currently regarding alternative media, like adding sychronized media to an audiobook (audiobook with text use case) 16:32:46 wendyreid: we should create a mechanism to enable this, but also for when this doesn't happen 16:33:41 marisa: maybe we should have the information in more than one place, even though that can be a bummer for reading systems 16:33:52 wendyreid: will revisit this topic soon 16:34:08 Topic: File hashes 16:34:22 Topic: durations 16:34:23 https://github.com/w3c/wpub/issues/307 16:34:32 Topic: duration in the context of WPUB 16:35:23 regrets. I have to drop off early. 16:35:37 wendyreid: duration for entire content vs. duration at the resource level 16:36:08 q+ 16:36:12 ack ivan 16:36:36 ivan: durtion currently defined in draft - nothing in there is audiobook specific 16:37:09 ...ability to add duration to a resource is generic - doesn't have to be audio could be video or whatever else 16:37:40 https://github.com/w3c/wpub/issues/420 16:38:39 q+ 16:38:41 ...does it make sense to have a duration for the book as a whole? for audio books, it is a requirement, but not for a general web publication. but this may not be restricted to audio books. Maybe there could be a video book. The concept is generic, but it may be a requirement for audiobooks and not for general web publications. 16:38:43 ack Avneesh 16:39:32 avneesh: generic, but in audio profile should be compulsory. But what is duration of whole book? Does that include branches that are not included in the reading order? 16:39:54 q+ 16:40:03 ack duga 16:40:16 wendyreid: Never seen a case where resources are not part of the reading order, but it could be possible. So we should include them in the entire duration. 16:40:59 q+ 16:40:59 duga: what is definition of accurate as far as duration? want to make sure there is no requirement for the reading system. 16:41:04 ack bigbluehat 16:41:09 ivan: what happens today? 16:41:18 duga: we determine the duration: 16:41:45 bigbluehat: agree with duga 16:41:50 q+ 16:41:53 Duration is important metadata 16:41:56 ack marisa 16:42:32 marisa: we will need this for sync media too; might not be a precise, e.g. user turns off page number announcements 16:42:34 q+ 16:43:16 ack ivan 16:43:22 National Library Service guy: agree that the reading system should manage 16:43:36 sorry: 16:43:52 Lloyd = National Library service guy 16:44:14 lloyd rasmussen 16:44:54 ivan: book level duration is more like general advisory information, not necessarily used by user agent for processing. 16:45:23 ...if this is the case, then requiring it to be present sounds like a step too far. should have/nice to have 16:46:06 q+ 16:46:11 ack bigbluehat 16:46:14 ... we have the duration set for an audio or video file. is it reuired to provide that info as part of the resource description, or will reading system also ignore that? 16:46:27 https://schema.org/duration 16:46:43 bigbluehat: we use schema.org duration property 16:47:36 ... what is the point on insisting or not insisting... is it a requirement for reading systems? what is the use case we are trying to solve for? 16:48:26 q+ 16:48:34 wendyreid: top level duration is useful for user experience, e.g. product detail page. most commonly used on reading system side to break down chapters for example. 16:48:36 ack duga 16:49:16 duga: we won't use resource level durations but will pre-process all the audio to determine. a web only reading system may not have this capability. 16:50:05 wendyreid: maybe the metadata is not used, but it can be provided in case the reading system can make use of it 16:50:45 +1 to move to WP 16:51:00 q+ 16:51:04 ...should we move this to WP since it is not necessarily specific to audiobooks? 16:51:15 Resolution: Add the duration property to web publications 16:51:15 ivan: formal resolution? 16:51:33 ack bigbluehat 16:51:38 bigbluehat: issue 420 - are we moving the requirement? 16:51:58 ivan: the term definition should be generic for WP, then we'll discuss 420 16:52:11 +1 16:52:13 +1 16:52:16 +1 16:52:17 +1 16:52:19 +1 16:52:24 +1q+ 16:52:24 +1 16:52:25 any opposition to the proposal to move to WP? 16:52:26 vote 16:52:28 +1 16:52:32 q+ 16:52:34 +1 16:52:40 ack George 16:52:41 +1 16:52:47 resolved: Add the duration property to web publications 16:53:25 george: ivan mentioned attribute about total duration - when a publication is time based media, then the total time would be very useful and I would examine it before downloading an audiobook 16:53:43 q+ to quickly mention https://schema.org/timeRequired 16:53:43 +1 16:53:47 ...like number of pages of a book 16:54:37 josh: duration only allowed on audio books and media, but at the top level for creative works: time required (schema.org) 16:54:53 s/josh/bigbluehat/ 16:55:02 ...estimated time to consume 16:55:27 ack bigbluehat 16:55:27 bigbluehat, you wanted to quickly mention https://schema.org/timeRequired 16:55:30 ivan: sounds like a great match 16:55:44 schema.org/timeRequired = "Approximate or typical time it takes to work with or through this learning resource for the typical intended target audience, e.g. 'P30M', 'P1H25M'." 16:56:03 q+ 16:56:08 wendyreid: interesting alternative. must think on it. 16:56:11 ack ivan 16:57:04 ivan: maybe we could in the WP document we make an explicit reference to time required at the top level and see if we can live with that, and keep the precise resource durations separate 16:57:54 +1 to distinguishing between timeRequired and duration 16:57:56 wendyreid: I will add to 420 16:58:00 Approximate reading time 16:58:13 https://docs.google.com/document/d/1-TB-_KCg97smmjcsbIVpi728qduOwESr3Og91-2Gtd4/edit?usp=sharing 16:58:16 wendyreid: face to face coming up 16:58:32 topic: misc 16:58:44 ... put your name on the list if attending, also dinner list and agenda items. last chance. 16:59:12 wendyreid: and dietary requirements too please 16:59:56 Meeting adjourned 16:59:59 rrsagent, draft minutes 16:59:59 I have made the request to generate https://www.w3.org/2019/04/08-pwg-minutes.html ivan
