The following module was proposed for inclusion in the Module List:
modid: Speech::Google
DSLIP: bdpOg
description: Use Google TTS services

similar:
Speech::eSpeak, Speech::Synthesiser, Speech::Festival
rationale:
Hi all,
The module or module set offers a optimized and flexible interface
to remote Google TTS services (officially part of the Google
Translator) to render high quality speech audio in many different
languages, adjustable by many options, incl. caching and possibly
fallback to local tts (like mbrola).
We have an additional version of the module which offers a much
more simple perl interface but is usuable with nearly any kind of
local / console based TTS solution and by concept a much simpler
alternative then the Speech::Synthesizer concept. It does not make
any sense for us to go under the Speech::Synthesizer concept as it
brings no more abstraction by having more classes / code to run (i
assume that is a reason why there is no TTS module developer using
that concept except the developer byself). On the other hand - a TTS
is just one application of speech synthesis.
From my view it would be more nice to have all these TTS modules
within a
Speech::TTS::*
namespace (i.e. Speech::TTS::Google) but ther still are some other
specialized TTS modules / scripts on CPAN within different
namespaces or at the level of "Speech::". If you have a "better
place" (namespace) pls let me know this too.
many thanks and best regards,
Niels.
