Not for me.  I cannot read CPA, so currently I'm ignoring it until I
feal people use it.

Well, I kind of know it now, so it's the easiest system for me.

No, please not.  I'd rather use a common standard than a private
version.  I did some programming in computational linguistics at uni
and people were using a version of X-Sampa, too.  It's a good thing to
be able to communicate.  And I really don't like chaos with different
coding systems.
