Maggie, try http://www-4.ibm.com/software/speech/support/
Poke around a bit. You will find more than you need.
The idea behind VXML is nothing more than XML run through telephone
lines by use of a voice controlled browser.
IMNVHO VXML will become more exciting, especially when we are able to

Good luck on your interview.
