Ideas for the Use Case of Public-sector Meeting Transcripts

Hello. I would like to share, for purposes of discussion, some ideas for extending TTML for use cases including public-sector meetings' minutes and transcripts.

Files could be attached to meetings' minutes and transcripts, e.g., presenters' slideshow slides.
These files could be described with metadata.
Agents could have one or more roles or positions described in their metadata.
Minutes and transcripts could have generator agents or software tools.
1. Beyond "person", "character", "group", "organization", and "other", might software tools be a type of agent?
Inline time-based hyperlinks could be placed in minutes to signal when files were attached to meetings' minutes and transcripts.
These hyperlinks could have generator agents or software tools.
These hyperlinks could be displayed for end-users consuming accompanying videos of meetings to download attached files.
