Fedora offers cmusphinx and pocketsphinx. I was asking whether they are 
being tested for Fedora 15 because I want to learn about the packages 
and software capabilities and perhaps make use of them for my own 
purposes -- I'm deaf and have an interest in the software, but no 
expertise with it whatsoever. I got a big jolt yesterday when one of my 
own customers demonstrated Dragon Naturally Speaking software to me. 
Now, I'm interested in voice-to-text processing for sure!

 From Fedora 14:
