_record_phrase now uses a helper class to track the noise in a sentence
to determine when the user has stopped speaking.
The logic should be the same but the same but allow for easier testing
and manipulation.
The initial framework for live streaming Speech to Text. STT derived
classes now can report that they support live streaming via their
"can_stream" property. If True, the following member functions will be
called on the object:
stream_start() - Called when a stream is starting. Should setup any
persistent state required to process speech to text.
stream_data(chunk) - Called when a chunk of audio data has been
captured.
stream_stop() - Called when a stream should be stopped. Should tear down
any state setup with stream_start(). Note that this may be called at
anytime (even if stream_start() has not been called).
Note that the execute() API is still used to get the text utterance from
the class.
A typical sequence of calls would be:
stream_start()
stream_data(...)
stream_data(...)
stream_data(...)
stream_data(...)
...
execute(...)
stream_stop()
Lots of minor fixes including, sorting dicts, making ints of strings,
MagicMock file spec and some other things
A couple of issues in the mycroft-core code base were identified and
fixed. Most notably the incorrect version check for python three when
adding basestring.
Update .travis.yml
This commit officially switches the mycroft-core repository from
GPLv3.0 licensing to Apache 2.0. All dependencies on GPL'ed code
have been removed and we have contacted all previous contributors
with still-existing code in the repository to agree to this change.
Going forward, all contributors will sign a Contributor License
Agreement (CLA) by visiting https://mycroft.ai/cla, then they will
be included in the Mycroft Project's overall Contributor list,
found at: https://github.com/MycroftAI/contributors. This cleanly
protects the project, the contributor and all who use the technology
to build upon.
Futher discussion can be found at this blog post:

This commit also removes all __author__="" from the code. These
lines are painful to maintain and the etiquette surrounding their
maintainence is unclear. Do you remove a name from the list if the
last line of code the wrote gets replaced? Etc. Now all
contributors are publicly acknowledged in the aforementioned repo,
and actual authorship is maintained by Github in a much more
effective and elegant way!
Finally, a few references to "Mycroft AI" were changed to the correct
legal entity name "Mycroft AI Inc."
==== Fixed Issues ====
#403 Update License.md and file headers to Apache 2.0
#400 Update LICENSE.md
==== Documentation Notes ====
Deprecated the ScheduledSkill and ScheduledCRUDSkill classes.
These capabilities have been superceded by the more flexible MycroftSkill
class methods schedule_event(), schedule_repeating_event(), update_event(),
and cancel_event().
