Indeed, it was previously named DFXP (Distribution Format Exchange Profile) to distinguish it from a more ambitious, but never fully specified AFXP (Authoring Format Exchange Profile).


I have no issues with this statement. TTML was built with two aims:
* as a distribution format ("distribution" in contrast to "rendering")
* with a focus on captioning and subtitling

That's all I wanted to point out.
