Well, this looks pretty thorough (although I would expect nothing less <grin/>). There is some initial work on captions using SVG from WGBH - and there is a public mailing list at W3C for discussion of potential work on a "Timed text" format - i.e. some kind of standard that would allow for a single method of providing text such as captions and subtitles. Most of the discussion there is about requirements for such a format, and I suspect Joe is a good person to work on this.
