Package: wnpp Severity: normal X-Debbugs-CC: debian-accessibil...@lists.debian.org
Dear Debian users and contributors, I request assistance with maintaining the festival (and speech-tools) package. The package is in a "good" state as of now, but it does have a TODO list and could do with some love. While I try to do my best with festival, since I am not familiar with the various sound subsystems the package seems to depend on, I would be much more comfortable if someone else steps in to oversee, assist and, eventually, take over maintenance of the package. If a team is willing to take over, or a team is formed for this package. This mail has been sent with permission from the other co-maintainers as well. Thanks! The package description is: Festival offers a full text to speech system with various APIs, as well an environment for development and research of speech synthesis techniques. It includes a Scheme-based command interpreter. . Besides research into speech synthesis, festival is useful as a stand-alone speech synthesis program. It is capable of producing clearly understandable speech from text. -- System Information: Debian Release: 5.0.5 APT prefers stable APT policy: (990, 'stable'), (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
