Yes, thanks for doing that! We found it early on and it created some very good results. But yes, Julius does have redistribution problems. But the library being 4-clause BSD and the tools. By size, you're talking about the size of the source package, right? I wasn't too worried about that, figuring that we could probably find a server close to the builders to grab the files and upload the package. Then it would all be on Canonical's network. For everyone else reading along, the English Voxforge data is roughly 8GB. It is basically 100 hours of WAV files. > Out of curiosity, what's the plan for voice recognition in Ubuntu? > Sphinx/Julius/Kaldi? In the demo images we're using Julius, but we've gotten a lot of help from the Sphinx list this week to make it much better. We were considering keeping Julius as an option, but with that help I'm not sure that we need to. I hope that we can get to the point of just dropping Julius to avoid any issues with redistribution.
