Well it looks like bullet points from outlook aren't preserved after the email 
is sent so here is an updated version:

I thought it would be good to send out a summary of what happened in regards to 
WebVTT at FOMS for whoever is interested.

The main focus topics were:

* FCC compliance
* Unifying the VTTRegion and VTTCue layout algorithms
* HLS of WebVTT

Outcomes of discussions:


* Region and cue width and heights will be specified in ems
* Implicit regions for plain cues in order to unify the layout algorithms
* Regions will be flexible and grow with text when they can't contain all of it
* HLS WebVTT will be worked on soon by Silvia (discussion was done, but no 
concrete conclusions)
* WebVTT
 is very close to FCC compliance. The one point lacking was scroll up 
being done correctly in regions. With the changes to regions listed 
above this will be fixed.

New Features Proposed:

The
 folks at JW Player showed off some features they worked into their 
player that they want to see in WebVTT. Most of these new features 
Silvia had requested of them last year to put into JW Player so that we 
could see a demo of them:

Tooltip Thumbnails:

* Example:

* Demo: http://demo.jwplayer.com/text-tracks/thumbs.html



Chapter Markers and UI

* Examples:

They
 also showed a way that chapters could be done with a left pop-out pane 
that has a the list of chapters with thumbnails, etc.



Various Demos (use Chrome for them to work…):
