vxml is often used to create IVR services, and do have some popularity in companies that like to think that they can exchange the box if needed.<BR>
<BR>
Most of us know that there are not a single vxml interpreter that don't have some proprietary parts, but it still means that with vxml you have an application where 95% ++ can be re-used if you as an example want to replace FreeSWITCH with another IVR engine. <BR>
<BR>
The reason I mention IVR is because it is hardly worth using vxml (and speech recognition) unless you have an application of some complexity.<BR>
<BR>
These applications need to interface to host interfaces, databases etc. The easiest way of dong that is through a web based service that is exported out as a wsdl, in which case you generate Java code.<BR>
<BR>
The second reason you need javascript/java capability is because vxml itself is hard to use for logic - we are not talking hello world apps here.<BR>

OpenVXL - this exist in 2 versions. The newest is GPL, but it was previously published under a different license that is compatible with FreeSwitch.

<DIV class=EC_im><BR><BR>I have a project that has a requirement for CCXML/VXML. I know this topic has popped up periodically on this list. My first question is, does anyone know of any development going on in this area on Freeswitch? I am considering writing a CCXML/VXML module, but I do not want to reinvent the wheel. If there is no current development going on, then I have some additional questions.<BR><BR>I am looking at developing a module. I am familiar with the architecture of Freeswitch, but have not been in the core code a lot. I was considering using the XML-RPC module as a template for a CCMXL/VXML module, and I was considering using expat for XML parsing. Any comments or thoughts?<BR><BR>Jonathan<BR><BR><BR></DIV>
