Modificaitons post meeting:

  • Took out b and i in favor of strong and em.
  • Keeping Object tag

Discussion:

  • Including dl, dt, dd (definition list)
Unicode support:

Decision was for players to support unicode characters. For browser, this is native and should not be a problem. 

For non-browser based player (eg, Flash), best efforts should be made, specially for characters needing escaping.

If object is not included, how will we support incorporation of audio and video? Through the DAM only? Just checking.
