Danburnett shadowThe 80th Meeting of the Internet Engineering Task Force (a.k.a. IETF 80) is happening this week in Prague, Czech Republic, and Dan Burnett, Voxeo’s Director of Speech Technologies, is on the ground there attending sessions on Voxeo’s behalf.

If you’d like to meet up with him, you can contact him at dburnett@voxeo.com. Odds are that you’ll also find him in most of the “RAI” (Realtime Applications and Infrastructure) area sessions as those are the ones dealing with SIP and the other protocols important to the kind of communication we’re involved with.

You may be most familiar with Dan from his leadership over in the other major standards organization, the W3C, where he co-chairs the Voice Browser Working Group which is the group overseeing standards such as VoiceXML, CCXML, SCXML, SSML and an alphabet soup of others. Dan is also the primary editor right now on the emerging VoiceXML 3 specification.

Over on the IETF side, Dan’s been active in a number of the working groups and has been the main editor of the Media Resource Control Protocol (MRCP) version 2 specification that is working its way toward completion.

Anyway, Dan’s there in Prague if you would like to connect…
