Open-source VoiceXML (VXML) interpreters are available for Linux. This does 
you absolutely  no good, of course; you must integrate the interpreter into 
the platform. I.e., input in the interperter is VoiceXML, the output is in 
some API that must integrate with the platform. Even getting ECMAScript 
running in VoiceXML is a non-trivial task.

Speechworks and Nuance will cheerfully sell you VoiceXML on Linux. I think 
IBM may also have something... check Alphaworks.

I assume that you're attempting to build VoiceXML services on top of SIP? 
This is something that interests me as well. What architecture do you have 
in mind, if I may ask? Integrated VoiceXML on Asterisk wouldn't be my 
initial choice, at least for what I have in mind.

Unfortunately, despite a month of futzing around, I cannot get Asterisk to 
work a softphone -- any softphone -- so I have no practical advice.
