[webkit-dev] Safari support for Web Speech API
I'm trying to ascertain if, and when, Apple is planning on supporting the Web Speech APIttps://dvcs.w3.org/hg/speech-api/raw-file/tip/speechapi.html#tts-section. This email from Chris that was attached to this posthttps://lists.webkit.org/pipermail/webkit-dev/2013-January/023309.html earlier in the year, is the ONLY thing I can find on the web regarding Apple's support of the speech API, which is very surprising to me. Does anyone have any knowledge of whether or not Apple is planning to support this spec for Safari, specifically on mobile, and if so, when? Now that this is a W3C spec, and Chrome has added support for it, Apple is seriously missing the boat on this. As a developer of mobile optimized sites for large retail brands, we see speech to text as a game changer for the mobile web. Very interested to know if this is even on Apple's radar…and if not, why not? Thanks for any and all feed back on this topic.

Re: [webkit-dev] Safari support for Web Speech API
If a forum dedicated to web-kit development is not the proper place to ask a question about whether anyone has heard of a major vendor's support for a ground-breaking new web-kit spec, exactly where should this be asked?

WebKit is an open source project which this list covers. Safari is a product released by Apple Inc, and questions about it should probably be posed to them directly. As for the correct forum to do that, traditionally people are encouraged to file bug reports at developer.apple.com with feature requests. ~Brady From: Dan Bernstein m...@apple.com Date: Wednesday, May 15, 2013 7:53 PM To: RANDY BROWN rbr...@madmobile.com Cc: webkit-dev@lists.webkit.org webkit-dev@lists.webkit.org Subject: Re: [webkit-dev] Safari support for Web Speech API On May 15, 2013, at 4:46 PM, Randy Brown rbr...@madmobile.com wrote: I'm trying to ascertain if, and when, Apple is planning on supporting the Web Speech API.

Re: [webkit-dev] Safari support for Web Speech API
Hi there, Dan has simply pointed out that you've posed a specific question about Safari (which is a proprietary Apple product). This list is dedicated to WebKit which is an open-source library being used by many vendors (including Apple). -- Bye, Michelangelo On May 15, 2013, at 5:09 PM, Randy Brown rbr...@madmobile.com wrote: If a forum dedicated to web-kit development is not the proper place to ask a question about whether anyone has heard of a major vendor's support for a ground-breaking new web-kit spec, exactly where should this be asked?
