[Asterisk-Dev] VXML (was Call control problems from Java)

[Zac Wolfe]

Actually VXML/CCXML isn't that huge.  Once we get the Java stuff sorted out
(which is almost there), building a VXML interpreter in Java isn't that big
a deal.  And, I like Java.

Why would it make any sense to build a huge thing like a VoiceXML again
in Java, when a perfectly good free one in C++ already exists? Reusing
OpenVXI seems far more sane.
