Yahoo Group on speech recognition
One of these days I'm going to write up a list of all the speech-related sites and newsgroups I know about, but there is one that has been producing interesting traffic and bears some mention because it's focused just on Microsoft speech and it's completely independent.
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/ms-speech/
One of these days I'm going to get organized enough to be more active on this group. We already have people who respond regularly to the SAPI 5 newsgroups out there, but the Yahoo Group seems to attract a different sort of clientele and I want to meet those guys too.
