Functionalities that a lightweight profile needs to cover

  • Discussion were hold to identify the minimal subset of the functionality that needs to be supported
  • Lloyd:"A lightweight profile for digital audio book should be easy to author and reliably operated by off the shelf players"
  • One idea discussed was to find a good balance btween functionality and lightweightness.
