WG status update

Milestone review:

  • FLAC - did not make July 2022 milestone. What is realistic update
    for milestone?
    ** We said at the June meeting that we could spend all of the
    August meeting on FLAC, if we needed to ...
Discussion on the call
  • NoTimeToWait 2022 announced as October 26-28, 2022. The venue is the
    The Hague.
  • Our AD has approved our October interim meeting to be colocated with
    NTTW, after some struggles with the datatracker, and Spencer may be
    the only working group participant who WON'T be there in person.

Matroska issues - Discussion of shepherd writeup from Michael - Part 1 and shepherd writeup from Michael - Part 2 on the call.

  • Michael is document shepherd. He has completed his review, and we
    will pass it on to AD for review when we have a draft version that
    addresses Michael's review comments.
  • We did have some questions for Michael, but Michael was not able to
    join the call before we adjourned.

FLAC issues - Discussion on the call

  • from our last call:

    • #138 and #158 need review.
  • #138 has been merged for uploaded draft

  • #158 - encapsulation specification on FLAC website is quite short -
    we do have a question about vorbis comment metadata blocks and
    order. Will it be a problem if the Matroska codecs document is
    referenced normatively? We don't think being encapsulated in
    Matroska is an indispensible part of FLAC. We can put anything
    critical in the FLAC specification itself. How to encapsulate MP4 is
    huge, and we really want to refer to an MP4 document, rather than
    cut-and-paste or try to summarize. We know what to change, in order
    to merge this one.
  • New question - section on development history that would describe
    FLAC software that will produce output that is not complant with the
    current spec because of non-forward-compatible changes to FLAC. We
    have done this with Matroska, and think it would be fine, especially
    as an informative appendix, especially for archival formats.
  • New question - we have about 60 FLAC test files in Github, and we do
    have some aspects of FLAC that are not well supported. What do we do
    with that information? We have the same problem with some parts of
    Matroska. We note that this information will not age well. Spencer
    suggested that one approach is the one used in
    https://github.com/ietf-wg-mops/draft-ietf-mops-streaming-opcons,
    with an informative reference to a "living document" in GitHub. This
    might also be useful for implementation guidance (also important,
    also may not age well)

FFV1 v4 issues - Discussion on the call

  • We did chat a bit about how to move text around so that it was
    easier to use diffs - Spencer suggested doing all the technical
    changes, submitting a revision, and then submitting a revision with
    ONLY block moves.

AOB?

  • Next meeting is 2022-09-27

WG status update

Milestone review:

  • FLAC - will not make July 2022 milestone. What is realistic update
    for milestone?
    ** probably done by end of summer, so we don't need to change the
    milestone date at this time.
Discussion on the call
  • NoTimeToWait 2022 announced as October 26-28, 2022. The venue is the
    The Hague.

Matroska issues - Discussion of shepherd writeup from Michael on the call.

  • Michael to be document shepherd, and pass it on to AD for review.
  • Now in WG Consensus: Waiting for Write-Up

  • In addition to PR reviews, Steve also asked that we discuss whether
    we need an IANA Registry For Enums In The Document

  • Michael has reviewed all of the document except the legacy section
    at the end
  • Steve has addressed about 80 percent of Michael's comments (thank
    you!)
  • Need to be clear about the use of BCP14 text, and especially the use
    of SHOULD in our specifications
  • We can also use "conditional MUST" statements if we can identify
    scenarios where the MUST would not apply
  • How tolerant do archiving repositories need to be, about files that
    are not well-formed (not compliant to the standard you support)
  • General recommednation about how to create files? Steve has a PR for
    that.
  • Block groups and simple block elements are legal, even if they
    contain no elements
  • PR #609 details
  • Section 25.3 needs to be redone as a media regisrtation.
  • Steve will create PRs with the existing issues that Michael has
    identified with the draft previously

FLAC issues - Discussion on the call

  • (If time allows) - actually, we can spend all of the August call on
    FLAC, if that's needed to finish up by end of summer
    • #138 and #158 need review.

FFV1 v4 issues - Discussion on the call

  • (Time probably won't allow on this call - can we pick a date for
    discussion).

AOB?

  • Next meeting is 2022-08-23 - remember, we skip July
