More specifically our incorrect assertion comes as we describe various challenges attendant on audio captcha. I think we can reasonably assume our readers will understand that many of these same analysis also apply in the context of Section 3: Multi-Party Approaches, though we certainly don't repeat our analysis, nor list out our findings afresh for the Multi-Party context. Given this I propose we publish an Errata Update to our document making the following two edits: 1.) We should considerqualifying our categorical assertion with the phrase: "As of this writing." 2.) We should add the sord "stand-alone" to our categorical statement. The edited paragraph in Section 2.1.2 would then read as follows: 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."
