What's the status of this request as it doesn't appear to have been 
addressed in the 07 draft or the roundup tool?

Thanks,

Re: [Speechsc] EMMA: Extensible MultiModal Annotation markup language 
support?

Having experienced the pain of several MRCPv1 ASR integrations (almost 
exclusively because of the previously insufficiently defined reco 
results), 
we agree with the comment for "stable base for development and 
deployment".

Worried that even a "MAY support EMMA" is damaging but think it a 
reasonable 
compromise to add an informative note pointing out that the intent is to 
incorporate EMMA when it is a stable standard. This way the direction is 
clear and we don't have to revisit this question bimonthly!
