  1. Web Technical Standards Committee June 16 2010

  2. Web Video WebM/VP8 and h.264 • Emerging HTML5 video standards are polarizing browser vendors. • This committee is of the opinion that the use of both YouTube and iTunesU is not a concern as this new standard emerges.  •  Risks are primarily associated with users of open source browsers like Firefox and Opera and their handling of the patent encumbered h.264 video codec.

  3. ODI - STUDENT CALENDARING The committee has been looking for data that would benefit from being included in or becoming a starting point of a open data intuitive on campus.   There is a student demand for a university hosted calendaring system that would allow interoperability with mobile devices.  It is this committees recommendation that this system be open standards based.

  4. ODI - STUDENT CALENDARING • The concept model is a collection of iCal files stored on a webserver supporting WebDAV. • Calendars could contain course calendars, class schedules, clubs, meetings and personal calendars.   • Should be based on open standards like iCal + WebDAV = CalDAV Web-based Distributed Authoring and Versioning to ensure data portability. • Calendar data could be integrated into a portal/module for ease of use, however, data and the application should be separate systems. • The importance of meta-data cannot be understated.  It’s used to describe the definition, structure and administration of data files.  (eg. Windows registry, meta tags, Exif)
