i had forgotten i had started this but here it is:

Feature set:

  • TTS phone call
  • mobile phone gui
  • dialout?
• data sources:

  • API
  • cli (ala uci, for scripting)
  • socket (unix style so it can do web or local)
  • python
  • C/C++ (can be used via python, java, erlang, lua, etc)
  • Java (for android, also gives a foothold into many jvm based languages)

    Structure

• module
  • core
  • the bit that the other bits are grafted onto
  • source of user input for the rest of the module
  • source
  • data source
  • filter
  • filter to handle data source or output of other filters
  • io rules
  • rules governing when and where things are sent to the user
