Description Olli Pettay 2013-03-13 17:59:45 UTC 
...and add a constructor for it. That way it would be
compatible with the rest of the web platform.
Comment 1 Glen Shires 2013-10-23 20:29:57 UTC 
I propose to close this issue because there are user-agent and web-page implementations using the current SpeechRecognitionError. If there's no disagreement, I'll close this on November 6.
Comment 2 Glen Shires 2013-11-06 21:50:23 UTC 
Closing this issue as described above.
Comment 3 Philip Jägenstedt 2016-11-17 12:42:21 UTC 
Reopening this because it seems that this hasn't shipped using the unprefixed name SpeechRecognitionError anywhere, just webkitSpeechRecognitionError in Chrome.

I've done an httparchive search for "SpeechRecognitionError" and found 640 results. I went through all of them and they're all things like http://cdn.adsafeprotected.com/sca.js and not real uses.

Changing this and adding a constructor therefore seems very safe from a compat perspective.

Suggested errata: "Section 5.1 Rename SpeechRecognitionError to SpeechRecognitionErrorEvent"
