I have been told that somebody recently did do a live captioned webcast, using realtext and a program that built the text files on the fly - which wsa custom-hacked for the purpose. I am hoping the program will be made available, but I don't imagine it has the feel of a production release, if it is available. But congratulations for putting the captioned version online. I look forward to reading it.

No one has done this live because technology is simply not there yet. We have provided a text transcript of the event as well as a close-captioned video for people who are hearing impaired, please see http://webevents.broadcast.com/usmint/dollarcoin/. Does anyone know of any government office that has done this? If you do, please let me know. rob --Charles McCathieNevile mailto:charles@w3.org phone: +1 617 258 0992 http://www.w3.org/People/Charles W3C Web Accessibility Initiative http://www.w3.org/WAI MIT/LCS - 545 Technology sq., Cambridge MA, 02139, USA
