What xml are you using ? anything standard or you created it ? I know there
are a lot of xml DTDs starting to appear related to speaking and
understanding... from VoiceXML to others I don't remember the names :)
If you're using a XML set of tags that you created or you're using a set of
another standard, please, let's share it so Proklam supports the same.
The diference would be that Proklam XML processing would happen in the core
and not in the plug in as diferent language will go to diferent loaded plug
ins (this will allow to load diferent plug ins/TTS for diferent languages).
I work with UTF8 all the time, I don't see a reason to use something difere=
nt,
I even have the file names of my computer in UTF8 wich means Windows is not
able to read them... bah! :)
Thanks.
