Hi,
?
I was asked "Do transcripts have to be time-stamped?" Example: Mr. Smith: (00:00:00) This is an example of how a time-stamped (00:00:03) document might look once we are finished (00:00:06) with it when you request timestamps (00:00:09).

I've been referring to the W3C's WCAG 2.0 guidelines<http://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG/#media-equiv>; but I do not see time-stamped as a transcript requirement. Is that correct, transcripts do not need to be time stamped or am I overlooking it?
