VoiceXML 2.0 and Speech Recognition Grammar Are W3C Recommendations

The World Wide Web Consortium today released two W3C Recommendations written for the world's estimated two billion fixed line and mobile phones. The Voice Extensible Markup Language (VoiceXML) Version 2.0 uses XML to bring speech, touch-tone input, digitized audio, recording and computer-human conversations to the Web from any telephone. The Speech Recognition Grammar Specification Version 1.0 is key to VoiceXML's support for speech recognition, and is used by developers to describe end-users' responses to spoken prompts.
