This article at the Inquirer is quoting the NY times as saying that IBM is going to open up the source code for their speech engines (my emphasis added). But in fact, the NY Times article says no such thing. As far as I can tell IBM is only opening up some of their speech tools and widgets, but, unfortunately, their speech recognition source will remain closed.

The only open source speech engines as far as I know are the Sphinx family of recognizers from CMU including Sphinx-4 which is written all in Java and the ISIP system developed a Mississippi state.
