I think your points are well taken and I certainly do not want to start down a road that is a dead end. What makes me think I "need" VXML is that is what my client is requesting. That is usually a pretty good determination in my book. That being said I am not beyond pushing another solution if I think it will be to their benefit. I am not looking for input on the project design. I am trying to determine if there would be benefit to Freeswitch of having a built in VXML interpreter. That is my only real question. If not, I will push much harder on the client to reconsider their request and consider other alternatives.<div>

<div>what makes you think you "need" voicexml,</div>
<div> </div>
<div>I wouldnt suggest flooding the market with yet another half done voicexml interpreter... </div>
<div>if you try to implement one from scratch, you will quickly realize that finishing the last 10% is more than 90% of the work. Then its in the state as all the other opensource voicexml interpreters out there. </div>
<div> </div>
<div>what you end up with just kinda smells like voicexml, and isnt terribly portable.. then you might be asking yourself why didnt i just use some other scripting language in FS and save myself all that time.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>VoiceXML from my experience is an all or nothing thing. People either want it, or they dont.</div>
<div>They dont want a half-baked interperter that cant pass the IR compliance suite.</div>
<div> </div>
<div> </div>
<div>I dont know how we can offer if it makes sense in the "design of the project you are working on".. you havent offered much detail there.</div>
