Meeting minutes

This Meeting

Nigel: Given the regrets, and who can make it today, I think we'll be mainly talking
… about DAPT pull requests where there's been some discussion
… I don't think there's anything to discuss re IMSC-HRM right now
… Any other business, or points to make sure we cover?

Andreas: Yes, the response to the DVB liaison

Nigel: Apologies, I saw you wanted to discuss that and forgot to add it to the agenda.
… Consider it added.

DAPT

Horizontal Review

Nigel: Current status is we have a completed review from Privacy and from Internationalisation
… and we are awaiting reviews from the other HR groups.

Atsushi: TAG colleagues have labelled the DAPT request as Accessibility
… It's in the accessibility track. I'm not sure why/how they are thinking, but they tagged it that way.

Nigel: Thank you, I didn't notice that.

Atsushi: I suppose TAG colleagues just wanted to hear from Accessibility colleagues about their concerns
… or views, but I'm not sure what is their actual intention.

Nigel: OK, thank you

Wide Review

Nigel: We had some great feedback from DVW that Cyril raised as an issue, initially.
… It seemed to fit better as a Discussion, so I moved it to one:

Specification review by DVW w3c/dapt#187

Nigel: So feel free to raise other discussions, or to comment on each thread within the DVW review discussion page.
… This is a good pattern for other discussion topics too, potentially.

Pull Request and Issue review

Redraft opening section of §2.1 w3c/dapt#183

github: w3c/dapt#183

Nigel: I made some more edits yesterday, Matt reviewed and approved.
… I just wanted to check in and understand what problems remain.

Andreas: Reiterate that if other reviewers are happy, then we can go ahead.
… If these terms are as used in the domain, it's fine.
… I thought there were some cases were the term script on its own is used generically, like in Script Type

Nigel: I can't see that.

Andreas: It's in §2.2.1 3rd bullet

Nigel: Ah, thank you, I will fix that.
… I'll also do another check through for any other instances of this.

Andreas: I found one other place, in the same section, below the first example, 2nd paragraph.
… "The first example shows a script where ..."

Nigel: Yes, I see what you mean.
… Apologies I didn't catch those before and resolve them. I will look for others, also if you
… find any more please let me know.

Andreas: Yes, will do.

SUMMARY: Remove standalone term "script" when it means script or transcript.

Rework audio description original and translation languages w3c/dapt#179

github: w3c/dapt#179

Nigel: I think the issues have now been resolved by removing Text Language Source for non-translated content,
… and having it set to the source language for translated content.
… The latest commits should express that.

Andreas: I will review offline.

Nigel: Thank you.

Other DAPT matters

Nigel: I raised an issue to add an editorial comment somewhere about the potential other uses
… of DAPT including using an Original Transcript as a post-production script.
… Matt raised this originally

Matt: I haven't any specific wording off the top of my head but am happy to review a pull request

Nigel: I'll work on that.

W3C response to the DVB liaison

[Matt leaves due to time constraints]

Nigel: I haven't drafted anything specific here.

Andreas: I think it would be good for TTWG to send something out as soon as possible.
… We have the discussion, and it's more or less finished. We just need the summary to send back
… so I would suggest that we try to agree on a draft offline before the next meeting, just so we can send something
… that the DVB can work with.

Nigel: I think the action is on me to draft that, though I will take volunteers!

Andreas: I would be happy if Nigel could sum it up.
… All of the comments would be very useful to have.

Nigel: I think it is important that we send our feedback, given the nature of what we discussed.

Andreas: [summarises briefly the discussion from TPAC]

Nigel: Ok, I will try to bump that up my list of things that need reviewing.

Pierre: I'm happy to review or contribute especially on the player model

Nigel: That's helpful, thank you, I would love to take you up on that.

Andreas: Thanks Pierre.

Meeting close

Nigel: We've finished our agenda for today. Let's adjourn. Thank you everyone.
… See you in a couple of weeks [adjourns meeting]
