How can you make a 3.1 RPM, the current version is 3.0.2 on brltty web site ?

I have very magical skillz0rrz!

Nah, I contacted the author and he sent me the 3.1 version to make sure 
that stuff worked before he released it, so maybe I should've done a 
0.Xmdk release, but I guess he'll release this one as  3.1 since it 
worked great:)

Yes, I'm working with a group of blind ßtesters of accessibility products.
They are looking for a TTS in french, which doesn't exists for Linux, not even 
as a proprietary software since ViaVoice is no longer supported.

They sensibilized RMS as he came in Bordeaux at the RMLL, and he will try to 
get some guy to work actively on emacspeak internationalization.

having some rpm sure should be a +.

Having the brltty activable as part of the install process could also help.

I will throw something together Friday or Sunday.  Since Friday looks

Not familiar with that one.  I don't have the hardware to do any of this
testing (this guy was using the DecTalk synthesizer), but it certainly
wouldn't hurt to look at the docs.  You got a URL?

brltty documentation
http://dave.mielke.cc/brltty/documentation.html

Here is a mini distribution with braille integrated at start
http://www.brlspeak.net/

How we have integrated brltty support in a custom tomsrtbt distribution.
http://www.culte.org/projets/biglux/marco/bigletom_en.shtml
It was an easy task as we just wanted a dedicated floppy.

Integrating brltty is essentially a choice of keyboard on a special device, 
the difficult part beeing that that choice must be easy for a blind person 
which by definition does have the help of his braille keyboard at that time.

We have access to a VisioBraille tablet for tests.
And are willing to help.

Summary: Braille display driver for Linux.
%description
BRLTTY is a background process (daemon) which provides
access to the Linux console (when in text mode)
for a blind person using a refreshable braille display.
It drives the braille display,
and provides complete screen review functionality.
Some speech capability has also been incorporated.
