murata2makoto commented 1 year ago

EPUB/A is a preliminary work item of ISO/IEC JTC1/SC34/JWG7. EPUB/A is expected to specify (1) which feature of EPUB should be used and avoided for long-term preservation, and (2) the packaging of EPUB publications together with any additional data such as other versions and other documentation into an OAIS Submission Information Package (SIP).

It will be based on two technical specifications: ISO/IEC TS 22424-1 Digital publishing — EPUB 3 Preservation — Part 1: Principles ISO/IEC TS 22424-2 Digital publishing — EPUB 3 Preservation — Part 2: Metadata requirements

Alicia Wise who is a leader of preparation PWI regarding EPUB/A gave a presentation in a JWG7 meeting yesterday.

This topic will be discussed in a JWG7 meeting in 2023 May.

This issue was first raised in the https://github.com/w3c/publ-maintenance-wg-charter/issues/16#issue-1646943080

Why is this group looking at EPUB 3.0.1 instead of EPUB 3.3?

murata2makoto commented 1 year ago

Yesterday, I explained EPUB 3.3, EPUB 3.3 RS, and EPUB A11Y 1.1. Laurent and Crisitina were also present. I am sure people will update the document. But the two TSs I referenced above were published three years ago.

There are ePub topics that does not proceed further because of lack of interest by the market and the ePub community, according to what is said in other theads by major contributors. So this effort was strongly requested or needed instead?
