A form for the URI was proposed [3]. Rules should be defined for all track types - text, audio and video. [1] http://dev.w3.org/html5/html-sourcing-inband-tracks/ [2] http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-tag/2014Jun/0033.html [3] http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-tag/2014Jun/0039.html 115182 1 silviapfeiffer1 2014-11-20 01:02:25 +0000 The discussion concluded that we should actually have a more generic solution for pointing to any defined keyword in the HTML spec, not just the @kind values, see http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-tag/2014Jun/0047.html . In fact, this solution already exists, but is merely undocumented. For example, the "URNs" for the track kinds are: http://www.w3.org/TR/html/#attr-track-kind-subtitles http://www.w3.org/TR/html/#attr-track-kind-captions http://www.w3.org/TR/html/#attr-track-kind-descriptions http://www.w3.org/TR/html/#attr-track-kind-chapters http://www.w3.org/TR/html/#attr-track-kind-metadata These can be made to persist across different HTML versions, as explained by Robin in: http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-tag/2014Jun/0038.html and http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-tag/2014Jun/0045.html Works for other keywords, too, e.g. http://www.w3.org/TR/html/embedded-content-0.html#attr-media-preload-none . 115760 2 b.lund 2014-12-01 20:14:43 +0000 (In reply to Silvia Pfeiffer from comment #1) > The discussion concluded that we should actually have a more generic > solution for pointing to any defined keyword in the HTML spec, not just the > @kind values, see > http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-tag/2014Jun/0047.html . So, something along the following lines? A Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) that points to an HTML defined keyword, created using the Definition element (<dfn>), should be of the form http://www.w3.org/TR/html/#ID_value where ID_value is the value of the <dfn> ‘id’ attribute. For example, a URI for the audio and video track ‘kind’ attribute value “alternative” would be http://www.w3.org/TR/html/#value-track-kind-alternate. A URI for the text track ‘kind’ attribute value “captions” would be http://www.w3.org/TR/html/#attr-track-kind-keyword-captions. > > In fact, this solution already exists, but is merely undocumented. > > For example, the "URNs" for the track kinds are: > > http://www.w3.org/TR/html/#attr-track-kind-subtitles > http://www.w3.org/TR/html/#attr-track-kind-captions > http://www.w3.org/TR/html/#attr-track-kind-descriptions > http://www.w3.org/TR/html/#attr-track-kind-chapters > http://www.w3.org/TR/html/#attr-track-kind-metadata > > These can be made to persist across different HTML versions, as explained by > Robin in: > http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-tag/2014Jun/0038.html > and > http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-tag/2014Jun/0045.html > > Works for other keywords, too, e.g. > http://www.w3.org/TR/html/embedded-content-0.html#attr-media-preload-none . 126229 3 arronei 2016-04-27 21:35:32 +0000 HTML5.1 Bugzilla Bug Triage: With the switch to bikeshed spec generation all linking mechanisms have changed. If you have specific issues following the bikeshed conversion please open an issue on github. If this resolution is not satisfactory, please copy the relevant bug details/proposal into a new issue at the W3C HTML5 Issue tracker: https://github.com/w3c/html/issues/new where it will be re-triaged. Thanks!
