Hello Paul and Marcelo, I am David Hill’s son and executor. I have been monitoring his email and saw your note.
Just as a head’s up, while he had prepaid for a few months of web hosting, those payments are about to run out and so his website will indeed be shutting down soon. So if you need any of the resources there, you do need to act quickly. Best regards, Simon Hill ---------------------------------- Simon Hill Phone 604-733-9004 Fax 604-733-9013 ---------------------------------- > >> Begin forwarded message: >> >> From: Marcelo Matuda <[email protected] <mailto:[email protected]>> >> Subject: Re: [gnuspeech-contact] Bad news >> Date: August 22, 2022 at 5:10:18 PM PDT >> To: Paul Tyson <[email protected] <mailto:[email protected]>> >> Cc: [email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> >> >> Hi Paul, >> >> I have learned a lot too, the documentation is very interesting.
