This is in follow up to a posting a little while back gathering
information on people interested in verbal interaction with robots.

Here is a brief summary of projects and names and e-mail addresses.
Now that there is some identified subgroup of people with this interest,
it would be useful to post to comp.robotics news of reports, work-in-progress,
etc. that might help us keep in touch.  Thank you to those who responded.
