Proposed Group: Audio Description Community Group
Posted on:The Audio Description Community Group has been proposed by Nigel Megitt:
Mission: To create an open standard file format to support audio description all the way from scripting to mixing.
Scope: To agree requirements and propose a workable open standard file format for audio description, probably a profile of TTML2, with the intention of moving to the Rec track within a Working Group.
Deliverables:
* Requirements document
* Draft specification document
* Explainer
You are invited to support the creation of this group. Once the group has a total of five supporters, it will be launched and people can join to begin work. In order to support the group, you will need a W3C account.
Once launched, the group will no longer be listed as “proposed”; it will be in the list of current groups.
If you believe that there is an issue with this group that requires the attention of the W3C staff, please send us email on site-comments@w3.org
Thank you,
W3C Community Development Team
The requirements draft is available at https://github.com/w3c/ttml2/wiki/Audio-Description-Requirements and has been somewhat validated.
