Overview

This specification gives direction on how to name the sounds that are available for use by applications, when creating a sound theme. It does so by laying out a standard naming scheme for sound creation, as well as providing a minimal list of must have sounds, and a larger list with many more examples to help with the creation of extended sounds for third party applications, with different event types and usage.
