If you have a need to add captions using Matterhorn, can you let us know if 
it's necessary to upload captions during a hold state? (This was somewhat 
functioning in earlier releases, but was broken for 1.2 and continues to be 
broken for 1.3 release candidates. Even when functioning, it was really not 
that helpful unless you were not trimming the media in the Review/Trim hold 
state. And, of course, you had to have a .dfxp file). 

For 1.3, the plan is to instead allow for captions to be uploaded in the 
multi-file upload. The assumption is that this will be adequate; please speak 
up if you feel otherwise.

best,
Judy
