... Ideas welcome for more text; I may have another timeslot with Allison early next week in which there will be some leftover room for additional words. Short phrases and meaningful sets of words for existing applications are desired; please don't give me words for apps that aren't even thought out yet.


John,
Thanks for initiating and coordinating the sound generation.  This is a
good example of how a community can share and achieve more than a single
person.  But it does take those single people to be the catalyst.

A suggestion for the next list would be "good".  This could be paired with
the already existing morning/afternoon/evening.gsm files to form a
greeting.  I did not see that combination in the existing files.

Regarding the CVS... Maybe could there be an additional directory for all
of the weather related stuff (like digits, letters, silence?).  Having
speciality  phrases kept together may keep the sounds directory from
becoming so large. Would also make it easier to find phrases.   Just an
idea.

Regards and thanks again for your contributions.

Robert - I have added "good" and "bad" to the list of pending phrases.

As to the specifications of directories for sounds in certain groups: yes, I think that is a good idea, but I am unsure how to implement it. Mark and I touched on that last night while adding the sounds to the CVS server, but I told him not to create a separate directory for weather terms because it would be difficult splitting the sounds into categories, which is perhaps only laziness on my part.
I thought that in the future it would be difficult to determine what words should be put in their own directories versus what words should be moved to the "main" directory. As an example, if one were to do a network monitoring list of sounds (which, actually, I have had Allison already do now that I look at my archives) then a partial list of sounds would be "up", "host", "down", "dns" and "ping". The terms "host" and "ping" clearly should be in a directory with monitoring sounds. But... where would "down" go? It's generic enough that it should really go in the main directory. However, it's specifically a part of the monitoring sound set. So where does it go? I couldn't come up with an answer on this, so I just ignored the question for now. :-) Opinions welcome.
