Why SABLE is inappropriate!
- CSS2 already includes most of the features
covered by SABLE
- CSS2 covers a range of media in addition to speech synthesis
- CSS is a style sheet language allowing the same style sheet to
be applied to many different HTML or XML documents
- SABLE requires media specific markup, mixing up structure and
style, and precluding effective rendering to other media
- SABLE omits many features required for Voice Browsing
Rather than adopting SABLE, it makes more sense to work on
improving CSS to enable high quality speech synthesis for any HTML
document.
