Hi David, Thank you for your e-mail, and I'm sorry for confusing. Of course I was looking for sources, that I can use for some of my experiments, e.g. acoustic tube modeling.
First I was looking for the code at: /sources/gnuspeech/gnuspeech/current, unfortunately without success and I read somewhere that I need to be a group member to use CVS. Finally, after reading your e-mail I found it at /sources/gnuspeech/current :) I found your project very interesting for my field of study. I'm incorporating audio-video processing algorithms for analysis and enhancement of laryngectomees speech. If I have any question about your project I will contact you with pleasure.
