I think part of the confusion is about whether traditional animation
is included in the Pausing provision. This was asked in yesterday's
call, but not really answered. If animation is considered part of
"moving" content, perhaps this should be clarified. The only
difference this would result in is the omission of the 3 second buffer
that was allowed for animation.
