This document details the responses made by the Multimodal Interaction Working Group to issues raised during the Candidate Recommendation period (beginning 12 December 2007). Comments were provided via the www-multimodal-request@w3.org (archive) mailing list.
This document of the W3C's Multimodal Interaction Working Group describes the disposition of comments as of 10 December, 2008 on the Candidate Recommendation of Extensible Multimodal Annotation (EMMA) Version 1.0. It may be updated, replaced or rendered obsolete by other W3C documents at any time.
For background on this work, please see the Multimodal Interaction Activity Statement.
This document describes the disposition of comments in relation to
Extensible Multimodal Annotation (EMMA) Version 1.0
(http://www.w3.org/TR/emma/).
The goal is to allow the readers to understand the background
behind the modifications made to the specification. In the meantime it provides an useful check point for the people who submitted
comments to evaluate the resolutions applied by the W3C's Multimodal Interaction Working Group.
In this document each issue is described
by the name of the commentator, a description of the
issue, and either the resolution or the reason that the issue was not
resolved.
This document provides the analysis of the issues that were submitted and resolved as part of the Candidate Recommendation period. All of these comments were received as comments accompanying Implementation Reports.

From Paolo Baggia (2008-04-09):
TA #2100 and #2101 : Note that it is very hard to have absolute times in a client- server ASR implementation.
Resolution: Rejected
Email Trail:
From Deborah Dahl (2008-04-14):
Recommend clarifying the spec on semantics of start and end times for text input.
Resolution: Deferred
Email Trail:
From Michael Johnston (2008-08-25):
Suggest use of emma:literal for raw recognition results as well as for literal semantic results from language understanding.
Resolution: Accepted
Email Trail:
From Paolo Baggia (2008-04-09):
TA #1501 : There is no evidence in EMMA 1.0 CR of this statement. Loquendo asks to remove this Test Assertion from EMMA IR.
Resolution: Accepted
Email Trail:
From Deborah Dahl (2008-09-03):
(Regarding TA 801) This test assertion refers to a configuration that is not allowed by the spec. It should be removed.
Resolution: Accepted
Email Trail:
From Michael Johnston (2008-08-25):
Request removal of test 1501 since the use of emma:uninterpreted to indicate below threshold input is not described in the EMMA specification.
Resolution: Accepted
Email Trail:
From Michael Johnston (2008-08-25):
Request removal of tests 902 and 903 since these constraints on the resource attribute on emma:derived-from are not described in the EMMA specification.
Resolution: Accepted
Email Trail:
From Michael Johnston (2008-08-25):
Request removal of test assertion 801 for inline emma:model since this test contradicts the EMMA schema, in which emma:model can only be a child of emma:emma.
Resolution: Accepted
Email Trail:
From Paolo Baggia (2008-04-09):
TA #606 : Unable to create an epsilon transition emma:arc without content. Should this be optional?
Resolution: Rejected
Email Trail:
None.
