Chair:

It is easy to say that metadata is available of files and for on demand delivery most CMS systems will have some mechanism of storing metadata along with the file. But having it available during live broadcasts is something that seems to be very neglected. The main reason is often because of technical reasons where the automation system is just limited and making this information available. What can we do about that and which standard should we be pushing forwards to help alleviate this.
