Dear TAG members, During the development of the Speech Interface Framework specifications, we the Voice Browser Working Group (VBWG) have encountered an issue that we think should be submitted to the TAG. There are several Recommendations developed by VBWG that talk about URIs and XML 1.0, and should talk about IRIs and XML 1.1. The group discussed how to reflect above change in the VBWG specifications. And the conclusion was (1) the change should be included in the specifications which are under development (e.g. SSML 1.1, VoiceXML 3.0, PLS 1.0, SCXML, CCXML 1.0) and (2) the errata pages should be updated for the existing Recommendations (e.g. VoiceXML 2.0, 2.1, SRGS 1.0, SSML 1.0, SISR 1.0). However, some of the group participants wonder whether it is really appropriate and the best solution or not, because if it is, all the WGs have to update their errata with the change and/or republish their specs just for the change. In addition, we are a bit concerned that it might be inconvenient for the implementers to make substantive changes like this to existing Recommendations and mandate their support. So the question is: Is it recommended that all the previous Recommendations be amended through errata so that they accept IRI, and implementations be changed accordingly? It would be great if we could get your advice by July 30, 2007. Thank you for your attention to this important matter.
