I applied for project membership and saw that the email had been sent to
David's old address.
I sent email to maintainers and gvc explaining the situation. I said
there was renewed interest in the project.
Marcelo, would you be interested in the admin job?

Hi Paul,
When people apply to join a GNU project, the project admin must
approve, as far as I know.
I haven't sent an admin request, I only said in the email that David
passed away.

I suggest we all (Marcelo, Sina, and I) apply to join the
gnuspeech project. Marcelo, send your admin request again to
[email protected]. Maybe the first was lost. We may need to
follow up with email to [email protected] (GNU volunteer coordinator).

Hi Paul,
I sent an email to [email protected] last year but they didn't
reply.

Hi Sina,
Marcelo did not mention his own important contributions in
this area, including a c++ port of gnuspeech
(https://github.com/mym-br/gnuspeech_sa) and a derivative
project, gama_tts (https://mym.eng.br/gama_tts.html).
I have been interested in this for a long time, but only as a
hobbyist. It is far removed from my daily work. I would like
to see an active open-source project for articulatory speech
synthesis, but I don't have many skills to contribute. I
could perhaps help with testing and documentation. I don't
know much about text-to-speech, c++ development, or
open-source project administration.
If gnuspeech is to continue as a GNU package, it will first
need a new admin. Are any of the current members interested
in becoming admin? If so, send a note to [email protected].
I'm not sure the GNU organization knows about David Hill's
passing, or that the project needs a new maintainer.

Hi Sina,
Currently this project doesn't have an admin, after David
Hill passed away last year.
You don't like the UI? :)

Hi everyone,
I've recently become familiar with gnuspeech(or GNU
Speech) project by chance when I was discovering FTP
server of GNU project.
The most interesting part of this project for me was
about academical papers and models used to develop
backend side of application (which mainly participated
by professor David Hill).
However this project unfortunately never got any update
or development since 2015 , as a result I have
interested to develop and also try to revive gnuspeech
project for demand of open source community in
generating TTS content and rely on software to use
commercial and non-commercial use without fear of
non-open-source licensing problems.
I also have some recommendations for the future versions
of gnuspeech:
-Ability to speech recognition
-Improving algorithms with recently published papers and
mathematical models in sound engineering and other
related branches(especially open access articles).
-Modern User Interface (also opportunities for
contributions related to graphical design)
-Maybe alternative for commercial virtual assistants :)
Best regards,
Sina Fesahati
