33. A computationally-implemented method, comprising: storing a reference to a location of adaptation data, wherein the adaptation data is at least partly based on at least one speech interaction of a particular party; testing an availability of the adaptation data by comparing a property of the adaptation data located at the referenced location with an expected value of the property of the adaptation data; facilitating transmission of the adaptation data to a target device when there is an indication of a speech-facilitated transaction between the target device and the particular party, wherein the adaptation data is configured to be applied to the target device to assist in execution of the speech-facilitated transaction; and facilitating acquisition of adaptation result data that is based on at least one aspect of the speech-facilitated transaction and configured to be used in determining whether to modify the adaptation data.
