Re: [open-jtalk-users] 女性：Mei どこ

Hi,

I'm not sure, but...
You don't have to show the credit for *each* time the voice (CC BY
license) is played.
I would be most happy if you show the credit to users at install step
or boot step or first speech synthesis step.

Anyway, I'm not lawyer (or creative commons member).
Please read section 4 of http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/legalcode

Keiichiro Oura
