Hi, Carlos– I think it should be under multimedia [1], which makes me realize that we should have multimedia as a top-level topic on our landing page [2]. Also, are you interested in writing a post for our blog about your contribution, and about VTT (the history, the tech, the use cases, the market and competition, etc.)?
