New Managed Speech API

Today is a big day for speech developers. Check out Robert Brown's post for details about the new managed speech API (aka SpeechFX). You can download it yourself or see more details about Avalon and the rest of the process of developing for Longhorn at: http://www.microsoft.com/longhorn. Note that people on the speech team read several public newsgroups to stay on top of questions from the general community. For SpeechFX, the one to follow is: microsoft.public.windows.developer.winfx.avalon.
