Internet-Draft The 'application/ssml+xml' Media Type July 2004
1. Introduction
Speech Synthesis Markup Language is an XML based markup language for
assisting the generation of synthetic speech in web and other
applications. The essential role of the markup language is to give
authors of synthesizable content a standard way to control aspects of
speech output such as pronunciation, volume, pitch, rate and etc.
across different synthesis-capable platforms.

Voice Browser Working Group public mailing list,

Internet-Draft The 'application/ssml+xml' Media Type July 2004
2. Registration of MIME media type application/ssml+xml
2.1 MIME media type name
application
2.2 MIME subtype name
ssml+xml
2.3 Required parameters
None.
2.4 Optional parameters
2.4.1 charset
This parameter has identical semantics to the charset parameter of
the application/xml media type as specified in [RFC3023].
2.5 Encoding considerations
By virtue of SSML content being XML, it has the same considerations
when sent as "application/ssml+xml" as does XML. See [RFC3023],
section 3.2.
2.6 Fragment identifiers
For documents labeled as 'application/ssml+xml', the fragment
identifier notation is exactly that for application/xml, as specified
in [RFC3023].
2.7 Security Considerations
Several SSML instructions may cause arbitrary URIs to be
dereferenced. In this case, the security issues of [RFC1738],
section 6, should be considered.
In addition, because of the extensibility features of SSML, it is
possible that "application/ssml+xml" may describe content that has
security implications beyond those described here. However, if the
processor follows only the normative semantics of this specification,
this content will be ignored. Only in the case where the processor
recognizes and processes the additional content, or where further
processing of that content is dispatched to other processors, would
security issues potentially arise. And in that case, they would fall
outside the domain of this registration document.

Internet-Draft The 'application/ssml+xml' Media Type July 2004
2.8 Interoperability considerations
Because SSML is extensible, conformant "application/ssml+xml"
processors can expect that content received is well-formed XML, but
it cannot be guaranteed that the content is valid SSML or that the
processor will recognize all of the elements and attributes in the
document.
2.9 Published specification
This media type registration is for SSML documents as described by
the W3C SSML specification at [SSML].
2.10 Applications which use this media type
There is no experimental, vendor specific, or personal tree
predecessor to "application/ssml+xml", reflecting the fact that no
applications currently recognize it. This new type is being
registered in order to allow for the expected deployment of SSML on
the World Wide Web, as a first class XML application.
2.11 Additional information
2.11.1 Magic number(s)
There is no single initial octet sequence that is always present in
SSML documents. See [RFC3023] for information pertaining to the
identification of XML media types.
2.11.2 File extension(s)
SSML documents are most often identified with the extensions ".ssml".
2.11.3 Macintosh File Type Code(s)

2.12 Person & email address to contact for further information
