Dear Debian maintainer, On Sunday, November 23, 2008, I sent you a notification about the beginning of a review action on debconf templates for emacspeak-ss.
Then, I sent you a bug report with rewritten templates and announcing the beginning of the second phase of this action: call for translation updates. Translators have been working hard and here is now the result of their efforts. Please consider using it EVEN if you committed files to your development tree as long as they were reported. The attached tarball contains: - debian/changelog with the list of changes - debian/control with rewrites of packages' descriptions - debian/<templates> with all the rewritten templates file(s) - debian/po/*.po with all PO files (existing ones and new ones) As said, please use *at least* the PO files as provided here, preferrably over those sent by translators in their bug reports. All of them have been checked and reformatted. In some cases, formatting errors have been corrected. The patch.rfr file contains a patch for the templates and control file(s) alone. Please note that this patch applies to the templates and control file(s) of your package as of Sunday, November 23, 2008. If your package was updated in the meantime, I may have updated my reference copy....but I also may have missed that. This is indeed why I suggested you do not modified such files while the review process was running, remember..:-) It is now safe to upload a new package version with these changes. Please notify me of your intents with regards to this. There is of course no hurry to update your package but feel free to contact me in case you would need sponsoring or any other action to fix this. --

+Description: speech output interface to Emacs
+ Emacspeak is a speech output system that will allow someone who
+ cannot see to work directly on a UNIX system.
+ .
+ Emacspeak is built on
+ top of Emacs. Once Emacs is started with Emacspeak loaded, users get
+ spoken feedback for all actions. As Emacs can do everything,
+ they get speech feedback for everything they do.
+ .
+ This package includes speech servers
+ written in Tcl to support the DECtalk Express and DECtalk MultiVoice
+ speech synthesizers. For other synthesizers, look for separate
+ speech server packages such as emacspeak-ss and eflite.
