Hi Marcello,
Good suggestions all. Many thanks.
I have put an entry to Gnuspeech into the Wikipedia and changed some
references into internal links. I have also extended my university
web site to make the Gnuspeech material more readily available by
collecting it all in a section devoted to it. I have put the
existing sound samples right at the top of the section, so they can't
be missed (they were somewhat buried before, and maybe you missed
them). The Wikipedia article includes a link to that site as well as
other useful stuff.
Let me know if you think this meets some of your suggestions
adequately, and feel free to offer more of your excellent suggestions.
I'll work on some more stuff immediately, including putting an
earlier compiled version of Monet on the savannah site -- but not as
a release, only as a Beta. Dalmazio has recently incorporated the
helper Beta app (unfortunately also called Gnuspeech) that translated
text into the Monet input syntax into Monet itself. I have yet to
try it out, but the original helper app did not deal with all the
text that could be put in (unlike the pre-parser that was part of the
TextToSpeech Server -- the daemon that provided text-to-speech
conversion as a service on the NeXT and which Dalmazio is now working
on.
This is just to keep everyone up-to-date.
I also need to produce a second edition of both the Monet and
Synthesizer manuals that use illustrations from the Mac OS X version,
rather than the NeXT, though the NeXT versions will be pretty close
for when it is up and running under GnuStep.
All for now.
All good wishes and many thanks.

Hi,
Dalmazio wrote about a month ago saying:
Also, have you considered registering your text-to-speech project
with
SourceForge.net? All the software on this site is free and open-
source
software, with usually some flavour of the GNU license, and it
gets a *lot*
of visibility. Just doing a search on 'speech synthesis' for
example shows a
dozen or so open-source projects related to speech synthesis. But
perhaps it
would be too much work to maintain two separate sites for this.
which also seems worth considering and might get some more people
interested
& involved.
I think that freshmeat.net is better in this case, it's just for
announcements.
You could put some screenshots of GnuSpeech running in MacOS X on the
site, and make available a binary package for MacOS X in the
"Download" menu in Savannah. And more sound samples would be nice too.
And there is no article about Gnuspeech in Wikipedia, see:
