Hi Joe,
Thanks for all the audio submissions.
I've finally got a beta version of the daily Acoustic Model build script now running. Just follow this link to try out the most current Acoustic Model and/or QuickStart that incorporates all the audio you submitted.
BTW, no metrics yet. Once I get some automated AM testing setup, I plan to start on some automatically generated metrics.
Ken
