Hey
Just read announcement by Jim Larson on www-voice that first public draft of VoiceXml 3.0 is available now.
You must be knowing VoiceXml 3 is having major changes over VoiceXml 2.0 and VoiceXml 2.1 !
Have a look and give it a spin ! You may want to contribute to Voice Browser Working Group !
Cheers,

Hacking --- Was it Myntra !!! ?? Yes !
Hi,
Some of you following me on Twitter already had some smell of the stuff and hack!
We wanted to have few T-shirts for MyKavita.com (which is India's leading Poetry website) and Mobile 4 Mumbai (which is first ever city bus search on mobile still in private beta).
Somehow we found that Myntra is leading provider of personalized stuffs like T-shirt, Keychain, Mug etc and we put the order for few T-shirts !
As always, i was in hacky mind and found that Myntra is open system ! Anyone (even non-authorized) user can get some of the very imp and personal information of Myntra's users like Mobile Number, E-mail, Postal Address, Order amount etc !
Additional to that it was fun (although accidently !) to place the order and get invoice without paying any money :)
Here is few sample screenshots which clearly shows your personal information [your name, id, cell no, phone number, E-mail, Postal Address, Order amount and details etc]
We have reported the issue to Myntra on 21st Dec, Sunday around 5:30 IST.
Myntra's team had called me, got explaination and confirmed the security/Privacy loophole within next 4 hr of reporting.
While publishing this post, Ashutosh from Myntra has taken active roll in managing the fix.
Overall impression:
Still its my first shopping experience, they are quick to revert and slow to act upon. After reporting the issues we do have around 3-4 phone calls etc.
Hope, they deliver the stuff on time [even i had not make payment till. :) ]
Disclaimar :
Offer of free T-shirt for not posting this post is rejected :)
Myntra is knowing that we had not make payment, we asked them we will pay full amount as soon as they provide the account details.
Do not worry for creditcard/netbanking information, it was not accessible !
Suggestion to Myntra to have strict auditing of their system
Update 1 :
-------
me: have look at,
--------
Update 2:
Ashutosh from Myntra has called me on 26 Dec around 12:00 am [Or 25 dec around 11:55 pm]. He explained me that normally it is not offered in bribing sense, but it is in customer friendly sense. Whatsoever it is he is feeling shame and sorry for the same stuff.
below is the part of E-mai reply,
"We at Myntra are committed for best user experience. We are very serious about for customer data security.We will have complete security audit of our website and fix if there is any loop hole."
--------
Do you know any other hack ? ping me privately to raxit@m4mum.com !
Happy Hacking :)

France Telecom, Orange Lab GPLed Pronunciation Lexicon Specification (PLS)
Hi,
On 12-july-2008, Paul Bagshaw [France Telecom Orange Labs] has announced on Voice Browser Working Group, Public mailing list, "To assist in the wider use of this W3C recommendation, France Telecom Orange Labs has released an implementation of PLS 1.0 under the Gnu General Public License version 3. "
Here is the link to E-mail.
The implementation is in perl.
If you want to try it out, here is the link to download page.
My Personal thought : I have started the OpenPLS however very much frankly, i was not able to contribute much to OpenPLS (which is hosted at www.sourceforge.net/projects/openpls) due to time crunch !
Its really good to have this implementation as opensourced. I would love to see PLS as standard. Kudo's to folks at France Telcom Orange Labs.

BarCampMU3
If you were unable to come at BarCampMU3 here is short takeout -
Flickr photo http://flickr.com/photos/24492651@N07/
This barcampMU3 was very much interesting, It was first scheduled in Sep 2007, but got postponed.
Finally on --March 9-- Correction March 8 2008,it goes rocking !!!
summary:
1. No. of total participants : 70
2. student of Somaiya college sion + other college - 15%
3. First time campers -- 15%
Demo
1. One laptop per child ! by Amit Gogna (www.laptop.org)
This was the most interesting demo by Amit Gogna, a small 1kg laptop for kid, who can do everything you imagine, browsing, paint, inbuilt camera/recording, Mashnetwork(i.e. can detect automattically the nearest peer using mash !)
-running on Sugar os, stuff developed with Python GTK.
-can simulate the "child laptop" on your regular laptop/desktop using simulator.
I personally took few photographs using the laptop, will post later :)
The actual laptop device was shown, and many campers have really try the laptop by spending 5-10 minutes or even more ! :)
Few campers asked interesting query, about technical specification,localization, any implementation and more.
Tech Specification and more :
AMD 433 Mhz, 256 MB RAM, "Not for Money/ Not for sell" but approx cost in US 188USD, (in india approx 240 USD)
Yes, there is one implementation, Khairat (Karjat) a small village of 200 people, a single school, single teacher and approx 22 kids.
If you think you want to contribute to the project feel free to get in touch with Amit Gogna.
2. Demo Vakow (interesting concepts, the product made by Two folks, RG and Amitu)
as per RG Vakow is build on the fact, people like SMS forwarding. It is SMS management system, you can Tag sms, subscribe to particular tag, and lot more customized way to subscribe and post.vakow has integrated stuff with Orkut and Facebook so can share SMS with orkut, facebook friend easily on E-mail, Web or Phone. Users have full flexibility and control. !
The most intersting part, Full Vakow.com is developed and operated by only two folks ! They are looking for few more LAMP(python) folks ! checkout more details at www.Vakow.com
==Tutorial kind of stuff==
1. Windows Server 2008 TechnicalWindows Server 2008 Technical by Aviraj Ajgekar Many folks have cross question and Aviraj (student of the college) able to provide to the point answer, few queries like can you show "how to configure MSAD ?" is bounced as he has already it was configured. The intersting part i come to know is Aviraj himself using Sun OS for its day to day work !
2. IVR using RAGI (Ruby Asterisk Gateway Interface) Sheetal from Enterux Solutions)
Sheetal has explained what is IVR, what is asterisk, and the full enterprise stack of RAGI.
how to configure basic stuff and how it works,
==TechFun Stuff==
1. Arpil Fool :) by Raxit Sheth
Folks were assuming its about MyKavita or Yahoo Hack ! but no it was about VoiceXml !
Raxit has first explain how it has made april fool (in 2007) to bunch of people [his friends only] using crazy idea of Free Phone Recharge.you may want to visit these old link of how the crazy idea executed.
http://raxitsheth.blogspot.com/2007/03/free-recharge-or-postpaid-bill.html
http://raxitsheth.blogspot.com/2007_04_01_archive.html
Raxit also explained (no demo, no ppt, just wordy explaination and Search Google !) its very easy to create IVR apps using VoiceXml. One can use plain Vxml and any serverside markup like asp,php,jsp etc to generate Voicexml. Raxit has made the simple application within 10 minutes from Cybercafe !
Ideas Innovation and Case studies discussion
1. Opensource as business model by Amol Shah (http://cyborgsblog.blogspot.com/).
It was interesting advocacy+discussion about opensource, It is interesting, interactive, even people enjoyed it, but counted as "common topic and never ending discussion".
2. The role of the community in open source development (by Renaud Richardet)This is second most interesting stuff after OLPC, Renaud is active contributor to few top-level projects in Apache. It is about Opensource but not regular discussion ! Its about community buildup, measurement of is community active ? and how to get started for opensource stuff.
Renaud explain his personal experience and cast study, how he has started to participate in Opensource project, Analogies of Comany and Projects and more,
Renaud has putup blog post here and interesting presentation here
3. Gaurav Shah
Gaurav turned up with Non-IT ideas (and someone is executing that also)
First one was Solar power, the most interesting he has put comparision, CBA and Payback time for Solar panel for street light.
Even Non-IT, folks has put intersting discussion.
The next is also by Gaurav, its about project Moksh (not about Moksh Juneja, popular blogar)! Funny but serious and intersting.
This discussion was also non-IT but solving reallife problem of people. The idea is simple, as Shaadi and Marriage stuff are doing lot of business from "Clothes","Catering services", "Musical party" and more event management stuff, they are (not clear Gauav or someone else !) doing "Event management when some people die". They help people in all legal fromalities, insurance formalities, Pooja - Antim Sanskar and other religious formalities, they are having team of "Expert Pundit" also !!!
In metrocity, many times it is very difficult for relatives and friend can provide enough time to this type of stuff.The important point gaurav has made is during this time, family need support of their family members. Their Family member don't want the leading person of family doing all these formalities instead of providing moral support, their team will take care of formalities,legal stuff and reduce the burden. He also explain it is not online stuff, It is not easy for normal people to cope with all these formalities. Everyone was 'seriously laughing' but gaurav has put this intersting Idea Sharing.
Finally --
Planners of the barcamp MU3 has putup thanks to all those who contribute to MU3, mainly their college staff, admin staff, faculties, principal Mr. Prasad, and thanks to Sun Startup Essentials for Sponsoring the event,and to all the campers !
I would say really i found Interesting stuff in this barcamp, Even no T-shirt, no CAPE,No Startup Talk, Mumbai Janta turnedup with real "Spirit of BarCamp". The stuff was entirely planned by students namely Saumil Parekh, Maulik Shah (both co-founder cafeinfotech and student) and Kunal Panchal. Would say big thanks to planner, keep organizing good stuff in future also !
