Speech vendors shout for standards.html

[Victor Tsaran]

C'mon. MSAA is a good API, I believe, it is just in the hands of proprietor.
But that's different.
I wish there would be a SAPI for Eloquence or IBM ViaVoice, for that matter.
When people write localized speech synthesizers, the only real API they can
use is MS SAPI.
