Release 1.1.0

Changes From Release 1.0:

In the *.phones files, the symbol ‘+1’ appeared at the end of some phones in the following directories: s0201b, s0202a, s0202b, s0203b, s0204a, s0401b, s0402a, s0402b, s0403a, s0403b, s0404a, s1001a, s1001b, s1002a, s1002b, s1003a, s1003b, s1004a, s1301a, s1301b, s1302b, s1303a, s1303b, s1304a, s1401a, s1401b, s1601b, s1602b, s1603a, s1604a, s1701a, s1701b, s1702a, s1702b, s1703a, s1703b, s2001b, s2002a, s2002b, s2003a, s2003b, s2004a, s2601a, s2601b, s2602a, s2602b, s2603a, s2603b, s3201a, s3202a, s3502b

All the instances were removed, and the .phones, .words and text transcripts were updated.

Directories s3503a and s3502c were included as subdirectories of s3504a, and s3503a.words and s3503b.words had no content.

s3502c was renamed to s3503a
s3503a was renamed to s3503b

All directories for speaker s35 now contain *. words files, and the newly renamed directories can now be seen for speaker s35.

Several .words files had a few lines in which words appeared with no phonetic transcription. The affected directories were:

s1003b, s1301b, s1302a, s1302b, s1303a, s1303b, s1304a, s3301a

The .words files were re-written to ensure that pronunciations existed for the duplicated words. Transcript files were also re-written for each of the affected directories.

An illegal phonetic symbol appeared in the .phones file for speaker directory s2403a.
The symbol was replaced with the correct one.
