Detailed Description
Goal of this feature is to build a voice control software in order to help users to interact with the system. This feature may be also useful for people with phisical disabilities.
Already exists a good start point, an older gnome applet named Gnome Voice Control. It's based on CMU Sphinx and GStreamer.
Benefit to Fedora
This feature will provide a new, advanced way of interaction and will enhance accessibility for people with disabilities.
Scope
I suppose the big work is to port old application source into new Gnome libraries (Gnome Voice Control isn't updated since 2007).
How To Test
Hardware problems ecluded (audio cards), I think this feature needs only some usability tests.
User Experience
User could activate the option "Voice Control" from "Accessibility Applet", so it can start to give some voice commands to pc. Like "BROWSER, MAIL, POWER OFF, etc.."
Dependencies
Old sotfware dependencies are (from original website): libwnck-dev, libatspi-dev, gnome-panel-dev, startup-notification-devel libtool gnome-common intltool cmusphinx3
Contingency Plan
Leave this feature out of the release. No user impact.

Release Notes
