I've used vxml on Voxeo's system and it's really nice to work with. "Underneath" it's tags is Javascript so a FreeSWITCH with a fast TraceMonkey engine and vxml would be great. Your MRCP project would help connect things to other ASR/TTS systems if pocketsphinx isn't good enough. Nice package.

I'm not talking about VXML itself, but presence of specification. I still remember my confusion, when initially thinking about media and call control dialogs and interfaces I found out XML based languages such as VXML and CCXML. Nevertheless VXML clearly defines media dialogs: entities, state machines and transitions, which is just good. More over VXML 3.0 is under the way http://www.w3.org/TR/vxml30reqs/ If you check the authors list, it will be clear this is going to be another standart we should live with. 3.0 is rework of 2.1 version, added native support of audio/video dialogs, speaker identification/verification. FreeSWITCH as a platform is almost ready for that, what it is still missing is VXML interpreter itself.

It's also focussed way too much on ASR/TTS. I think we can all agree this technology is still a future promise, even after 10+ years. But technically VXML is an interesting concept, especially together with related standards like ccxml (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Call_Control_eXtensible_Markup_Language). The latter supports call transfer and conferencing. Every VoIP and TDM product I've worked with in the past has it's own application interface or is bound to an interface that's tailored for a special use (like pbx). I've also used voxeo's callxml, that's implemented with the CosmoCom ACD product. It's implementation is crappy, but the concept is nice. The idea of separating callcontrol+media (voice/swithing core) and application+ivr logic (vxml webserver cgi scripts) sounds rather appealing to me. Do you known the name of the free VXML editor/client that's out there? ________________________________ Van: freeswitch-users-boun...@lists.freeswitch.org [mailto:freeswitch-users-boun...@lists.freeswitch.org] Namens Anthony Minessale Verzonden: woensdag 22 april 2009 3:58 Aan: freeswitch-users@lists.freeswitch.org Onderwerp: Re: [Freeswitch-users] VoiceXML I was initially turned off by VXML when it came out because the first way they tried to make money off it was to sell the clients that let you build the actual xml.? I was not really motivated to pay money to be able to just generate xml just so i could code a free server for it so I lost interest. I did hear there is now finally a free one out there. so that may make it a little more reasonable. I've commented in the past that I'm totally open to supporting VXML but we have never had the public interest, time or resources to work on it thus far.
