http://www.boingboing.net/2006/06/05/play_zork_by_phone.html Let me preface this idea with one comment: I don't have the time to do this - I don't even have time to eat these days. But someone out there has the cycles to do this... and it would be very cool. OK, so now Zork is attached to Asterisk, but using the less-than-clear Festival engine. There are beta tests of the LumenVox speech recognition engine out there which tie directly into Asterisk. Allison Smith (the voice of Asterisk) would almost CERTAINLY do a great dramatic reading of all of the text blocks within Zork. I see an excellent opportunity for a demo server on some CLEC who would love to get some $ by opening up a few DIDs to a huge recip comp traffic load. Even if it's just available via IAX2 or SIP, this would be one of those "legends of the Net" in the next few years... JT
That's not far off from my actual plans... I've had a server donated to me for the project and have had a couple of CLEC's offer incoming lines, as well as had a developer license for Cepstral's TTS engine donated. Another feature I want to add is meetme-like capabilities so that you can talk with your fellow players when you're in the same room, maybe even connect it up to a mud or a moo or something. If anyone feels like collaborating, feel free to contact me off-list by dropping the -asterisk from my address.

A demo server is up and running the 0.2 beta for anyone who'd like to try it out. Some brief instructions, and call in methods: http://uc.org/read/ZoIP%20Demo Cheers, spd On Tue, 6 Jun 2006, John Todd wrote:> > http://www.boingboing.net/2006/06/05/play_zork_by_phone.html > > Let me preface this idea with one comment: I don't have the time to > do this - I don't even have time to eat these days.
