This doesn't really need the WG, we can do it 15:10:40 ... Then there were some non-normative issues, like images in spine 15:10:51 ... at tpac we said we might want some examples of that 15:11:13 ... If we don't have any normative items left, what do we do? 15:11:31 ... maybe put the TF on hold, and just do the non-normative work in the CG 15:11:41 ... which might give us more people 15:12:19 ... By moving this to the CG we might have more input, to get a better output 15:12:30 DaleRogers has joined #pm-dc 15:12:31 ... This is very tempting 15:12:44 ... we would only need to meet maybe once a month 15:12:48 present + 15:13:08 ... There are some admin issues like timing of the meeting 15:13:14 present+ DaleRogers 15:13:27 ... so moving this to the CG sounds like a good idea 15:13:53 shiestyle: We are planning to stop this TF for now and move to CG. Are there any comments or opinions? 15:14:04 Hadrien: Gautier, thoughts? 15:14:30 shiestyle: I spoke with Ivan, they can add a new calendar entry 15:14:33 q+ 15:14:43 q+ 15:14:47 ack DaleRogers 15:15:14 DaleRogers: I understand the idea of the move, my question is if ideas come out of the CG, do those go directly to the WG? 15:15:38 Hadrien: For normative items, it could come to this TF, since we would just be paused 15:15:49 ... but we haven't found anything that would apply 15:16:06 q+ 15:16:14 DaleRogers: I will look into joining that, as I would like to keep participating 15:17:02 ack gautierchomel 15:17:06 shiestyle: We have two options, move to CG, or we can move to the main call. It depends on the status of the proposal 15:17:10 ack gautier 15:17:17 gautierchomel: We are happy to house this at the CG 15:17:28 ... this would be a TF of the CG 15:17:42 Hadrien: That is what we wanted 15:17:55 gautierchomel: That is easy to do if we want to go this way 15:18:21 ack CharlesL 15:18:23 ack CharlesL 15:18:25 ... I just have some minor things to do on the CG side 15:18:46 CharlesL: I have no problem with the move 15:19:22 ... What about SMIL and comics? Should we move that incubation to the CG? 15:20:05 Hadrien: Anything related to incubation is great for the CG 15:20:51 shiestyle: 3.4 is basically closed, so if we do have normative changes, they may want to move to a later version 15:21:23 CharlesL: We have already approached adding more if SMIL to epub 15:21:48 q+ 15:21:48 ... so if it does get added we could look at writing best practices on how to write such comics at the cg 15:22:20 Hadrien: Accessibility group is the most mature, since they have both normative and non-normative 15:22:26 ... we should follow that 15:22:49 shiestyle: 3.4 is almost closed for normative changes, but we can add a WG note later 15:22:58 ack Dale 15:23:29 DaleRogers: In the community, a big issue is implementation 15:23:48 ... Hadrien, you mentioned that there are already RSes experimenting with similar features 15:24:00 ... will it be easy for them to switch to a SMIL version? 15:24:19 Hadrien: For specialized libraries, they worked mainly with DAISY files 15:24:37 ... But gradually they are moving to epub 15:24:54 ... epub with MO is becoming their core format 15:25:20 ... so there expectation for comics with pre-recorded audio is outside this since there was no format 15:25:49 ... but since they are already betting on epub, there is a likelihood that if they can do this, they will 15:25:57 q? 15:26:27 Hadrien: ANother benefit to the CG is we won't be bound by time 15:26:44 ... so we can continue to discuss comics issues even after the WG charter expires 15:27:23 ... we have a gap that can be filled with best practices documents 15:27:51 ... e.g. Japanese publishers have a best practices for Manga, it would be good to have a global best practices 15:27:59 ... we can do that in the CG 15:28:12 shiestyle: That can be a CG or WG notes 15:28:22 ... no objections? 15:29:06 Hadrien: so we will cancel the meeting in the calendar, but we should send an email to the group to explain we aren't closing down 15:29:11 ... we are just pausing 15:29:35 shiestyle: Let's talk schedule for the CG TF 15:29:40 ... when should we meet next 15:29:48 Topic: Schedule for new TF in CG 15:30:02 ... when is better for you? 15:30:10 ... after WG call is currently midnight 15:30:39 Hadrien: Question for Americans - can we do it an hour before the call? 15:31:05 ... I don't know where the American publishers are, NY? 15:31:18 q+ 15:31:27 CharlesL: That's early 15:31:36 DaleRogers: Yes, that is early for regular meetings 15:31:48 Hadrien: We would probably only do once per month 15:32:04 shiestyle: Or wednesday as the same time slot as the WG call 15:32:28 CharlesL: That could work 15:32:35 DaleRogers: I agree 15:33:10 duga: Should we wait until this moves? 15:33:35 Hadrien: Yeah, we should probably skip Feb, then we can see who else can join 15:34:04 Topic: schedule and move to the CG 15:35:09 CharlesL has left #pm-dc 15:35:54 zakim, end the meeting 15:35:54 As of this point the attendees have been MasakazuKitahara, shiestyle, toshiakikoike, duga, Hadrien, CharlesL, DaleRogers 15:35:56 RRSAgent, please draft minutes 15:35:57 I have made the request to generate https://www.w3.org/2026/01/15-pm-dc-minutes.html Zakim 15:36:04 I am happy to have been of service, shiestyle; please remember to excuse RRSAgent.
