It is great to begin seeing the eclipse.org/vtp
website change to reflect the advent of a VTP release based on openVXML. I see a
lot of work has been done.
As a contributor to VTP 1.0, I have been very
interested in understanding how the openVXML-based VTP would relate to the
original VTP. It's beginning to be clear that this version will completely
supplant the previous version. Is that correct? Will there remain any overt
support for creating and editing VXML and grammar files? Application
launching?
I have used VTP 1.0 for several small projects, and
find it tremendously useful still. Is there any sense in which its capabilities
will survive? There are many, many voice application projects that can still be
well-serviced by the capabilities that were in VTP 1.0.

Brent -
For the most
part Id agree with you, however weve received a lot of requests for an
installer in the cases where the user doesnt already have an eclipse install
and will just be using the tool as an end user. The zip version should
be up tonight or tomorrow. The other automated builds will have to wait
until we get the infrastructure up to support it. On that note, Id like
to open the floor to anyone who has any suggestions on build process/schedule.
What bells and whistles would you like to see as part of our build
process? Some ideas Ive had:
- automated test reports
- automated code coverage reports
- pre-defined per committer branches
- build success dependent merges into trunk or
milestone branches
Thoughts?

Interesting.. I'd gladly take a zip file :)
Do
any other eclipse foundation project have an installer? I think most of them
just pop out zip files and update sites to avoid that mess.

It sure does! There is currently no
build on the vtp site, though this will be fixed later this week. I
wanted to make sure everything integrated well before releasing a binary.
Also, were working with an installer group that has an open source
use license. Hopefully in the future we could have click to run
all-in-one installers for Windows, Linux, and Mac OS X. Also, in the
near future, we should have automated daily/integration builds as well.
Good to hear from you!

This is great stuff -- will <subdialog>
support allow the calling of abitrary VoiceXML outside of the graphical
flow?
Also, is a build available on the VTP site?

Subject: [vtp-dev] Upcoming Release of 2.0
Good news
all,
The outstanding patches for the 2.0
development stream have been submitted and committed. I'd like to
officially move the branch into a release candidate status. This
update includes a multitude of bug fixes, an API for module writers to
provide custom configuration screens, and support for the VXML
<record> and <subdialog> functionality. A run-down of
the patches is included at the end of this
email.
We have internally tested this
release pretty thoroughly, but there can always be more testing. I'd
like to outline a few tasks that need to be completed as we move towards a
full release:
- Unit Tests: There are still several
areas of the code which need additional unit tests created.
- Documentation: The documentation
has been updated to reflect the new changes but has not been published
to the project site documentation area. This will be fixed
shortly. Once published, the documentation needs to be reviewed
for accuracy, grammar, and spelling.
- Bugzilla: Needs to be updated to
include a 2.0 rc1 version for additional bugs to be reported against.
- CVS: I'd like to re-org the
repository to reflect a version scheme. This will probably involve
requesting a new repository location so we may keep this one intact for
legacy history purposes.
- Build: Currently, there is not an
automated build server in use for the VTP. We need to decide on
our build process and schedule.
- Project Site: The project site
needs to be updated to reflect moving into a release candidate
status.
Id also like to
introduce a few new contributors to the VTP. These guys have been
instrumental in getting this release back on track after the development
freeze while waiting on approval of a couple of third-party
libraries.
Randy Childers Randy has been
working on solidifying the built-in module APIs and helping with the
documentation effort.
Nitin Pai Has produced
much of the copy for the documentation and played editor during its
creation.
Derek Moore Derek will be helping
with getting the build process up and running and taking on its
maintenance in the future.
Tyler VanWinkle
Tyler has been working on updating the VTP website and will also be the
go-to guy for community building.
Im sure youll see all these
guys on this list over the next few weeks as we try to close this
out.
Thanks for everyones help,
Trip
