There were three main aspects today.
1) We used a new caption overlay tool called AFLOAT, still in beta, that worked very well.
2) Judith initiated a robust discussion on ICANN’s captioning and transcription standards.
3) We live captioned the video of Sally Wentworth’s Internet Futures Project talk at EURODIG earlier today.
