[Olympus developers 24]: Re: [Fwd: binding filters]

[TK Harris]

So there is some DateTime documentation on the wiki. It was an orphaned 
page, as "Date Time". The list of components referred to "DateTime". I 
changed the page name to match what's in the component list, so you can 
now find it at:
http://wiki.speech.cs.cmu.edu/olympus/index.php/DateTime

There's also the following documentation on binding filters:
http://wiki.speech.cs.cmu.edu/olympus/index.php/RavenClaw_Grammar_Mappings_and_Binding_Filters
I just reworked that page so that it's a little easier to follow.
