2008-06-20: The Voice Browser Working Group has released the Last Call Working Draft of Speech Synthesis Markup Language (SSML) Version 1.1. SSML provides a rich, XML-based markup language for assisting the generation of synthetic speech in Web and other applications. SSML 1.1 improves on W3C's SSML 1.0 Recommendation by adding support for more conventions and practices of the world's languages including Asian, Eastern European, and Middle Eastern languages. Comments are welcome through 20 July. See the list of changes in this draft and learn more about W3C's Voice Browser Activity. (Permalink)
