While Tarquin's comment was a bit cheeky (what use
would he have had *then for it) -- and Dan's comment
earlier about professors knowing better than the rest
of us, so why bother (well?) -- represent the pinnacle
of interest in the subject...  Still -- wikipedia
might have an interest in attempting to
unify/formalize something on this. Maybe its time that

http://meta.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phonetic_schema

But the whole notion of using English specific formats
is useless-- once again the see we tend to swim in is
an English-centered one.

And Ill take a look at any PHP or Perl pinyin
converters so that stuff like "pin:/wo3 bao4 you3/
SARS" gets turned in into properly accented vowels,
etc.
