We would like some feedback on build flags for the Web Speech API installation.
More specifically, we are planning to land an initial version of the Web Speech API[1] into Geko. However, due to a number of factors, model size being one of them, we plan to introduce various build flags which install/do not install parts of the Web Speech API for various build targets. Our current plan for B2G is as follows: 1. Introduce a flag to control installation of the Web Speech API 2. Introduce a flag to control installation of Pocketsphinx[2], the STT/TTS engine. 3. Introduce a script to allow installation of models, allowing developers to test the Web Speech API (They can test once they've made a build with the previous two flags on) Our question is related to desktop and Fennec. Our current plan is to: 1. Introduce a flag to control installation of the Web Speech API + Pocketsphinx + English model[3] The question is: Is this a good plan for desktop and Fennec? Should there be more/less fine grade control for installation there?
