Re, Ok here's my 1st feedbacks about pico. I think it's a very good opportunity for the future. I only see, after a few minutes, these problems: 1. I tried to change the rate via orca, even set to 60, it doesn't change anything. 2. The volume, even maximum, is low. I believe a bug is reported about this upstream. 3. I'm not absolutely sure about stability: it worked with orca -t, F did ctrl-c, didn't work anymore, I rebooted the system, so it worked... Don't understand why pico didn't worked anymore after ctrl-c. 4. When a number has more than 1 figure (10, 11, 12...), it's not pronounced in French, the synthetiser reads the 2 figures. Instead of saying 12, it says 1 2. 5. Of course, the prosody can be improved. But I find that the quality is very interesting. The way is less long between current state and a very very good product.
I don't know how I can help: test, doc, translation, but if I can I will try. So far I promoted voxin (viavoice tts) because no free software seemed to me usable daily for most users, especially those who come from Jaws. Today, Free Software offers a very good solution, which has to be improved but which is really cool. I'll test upgrades regularly. Anyway if someone knows more about this project and what it needs, don't hesitate. I'll search myself this too.
