Hi Nischal, Congrats! The screencasts are amazing and, as i can see in sourceforge, it relies on at-spi for discovering the elements that could be commanded, isn't? I suppose you know about gnome-voice-control, even both projects shares sphinx for speech recognition so, what do you think vedics differs from gnome-voice-control or improve it?
