Most meetings take place online as text to start with, so obviously there is no need for transcription there, but AGMs are done in real life. I wouldn't mind having a transcription of our AGMs (at least the important parts of them). The main advantages of transcriptions over raw audio files is that they can be skimmed and searched, audio files can't. I find that very useful. _______________________________________________ Wikimedia UK mailing list wikimediau...@wikimedia.org http://mail.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikimediauk-l WMUK: http://uk.wikimedia.org
