[asterisk-speech-rec] Re: Speech Recognition / 1.4beta3 +LumenVoxCRM:00050623

Hi Scott,
I was at Astricon last week and thought about buying the 'test' platform
for my own personal requirements.

As a non developer though I was unsure I'd ever get it to work.

What I want to know is, even after looking for a while I was unable to
find a central repository of dial plan integration information.

Is there a location I can cut and paste information from to get
lumen-vox to work.

Cheers,

Dean
