Our proposed edit is included and marked by double brackets -- [[ ]] "Unfortunately, non English audio CAPTCHAs appear to be very rare indeed. [[As of this writing,]] we are aware of only one [[stand-alone]] multilingual CAPTCHA solution provider with support for a significant number of the world's languages." Our proposal is to simply update the published Note without fanfare or public announcement of any kind. This is proposed as a simple erratum update. ***Action to Take*** This CfC is now open for objection, comment, as well as statements of support via email. Silence will be interpreted as support, though messages of support are certainly welcome. If you object to this proposed action, or have comments concerning this proposal, please respond by replying on list to this message no later than 23:59 (Midnight) Boston Time, Tuesday 5 November.
