Description nigelmegitt 2015-04-10 19:48:32 UTC 
"6.1 Cues in isolation

The rules for interpreting WebVTT cue text (e.g. for use as chapter titles) are as follows:

Let nodes be the list of WebVTT Node Objects obtained by applying the WebVTT cue text parsing rules to the cue's text track cue text.

..."

The second bullet in ยง6.1 of the FPWD has an empty red box. What should be in there?

That's already fixed in the latest version, see http://dev.w3.org/html5/webvtt/.

After some changes happened to the HTML spec (see https://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=27102), we were able to make changes to the WebVTT spec that clean up this section: http://www.w3.org/TR/2014/WD-webvtt1-20141111/#cues-in-isolation

Just to note that this bug was filed on the WG FPWD. Resolution there will need a new WD from the WG. Understood the ED differs.
