[Gc-linux-devel] Hello

[Glenn at h. <Gle...@ca...>]

Hello,
My name is Glenn, and I am new here, and I joined to find out if this 
project can be made accessible for the Blind.
I find your project intriguing.
I have already used Linux with an add-in called:
SpeakUp -  http://www.linux-speakup.org/
with an external hardware speech synthesizer, but some people use it with a 
software synth, which utilizes the audio capabilities of the computer to 
synthesize speech.
Festival is one of the software synthesizers, and there are others too.
I don't know how to compile a distro with SpeakUp, but perhaps it would be a 
piece of cake for some of you.
Do any of you folks think this might work?
Thanks
