Do we want to talk to Yumi (not MyCroft)?

[hummlbach]

Should we change the wake word to "Hey Yumi"? Or try to make configurable, s.t. an arbitrary wake word can be choosed?

I think it would be cool to change that (or make it configurable). But I guess it won't work to make it freely configurable, according to our tests, as the wake word detection seems to need some more preparations but to simply write down a word or choose one from a dictionary. But maybe we could provide two options ("Hey Microft" and "Hey Yumi") to choose from.

flohack just proposed "Dear Yumi" and I like it.

It's sufficient to replace "HH EY . M AY K R AO F T" by "D IY AE . Y UW M IY" in the config file and taking care that it's not overwritten by remote settings in mycroft home...

Make it optional, user configurable, with an UI, or Web UI.

There is already an option to choose a custom wake word (you need to be logged in) besides others (Christopher, Hey Ezra, Hey Jarvis). Anyway we should still allow people to use "Hey Mycroft". It's neural network has been trained with over 100,000 samples should give much better results than a custom one.
