Bug#601596: RFH: festival -- General multi-lingual speech synthesis system

2011-09-27 Thread Jean-Philippe MENGUAL
The forbidden problem is now fixed. So I plan to chgrp packages soon.
I'll use git to make easier migration keeping the history. To have
permissions, you should be added to tts group. For this, please request
to be added. If you cannot git push anymore, it's because perm will have
been changed. So don't worry, only request, you'll be added quickly.

Regards,

Jean-Philippe MENGUAL

 I'm going to create the team in a few days, as noone in Debian is opposed to 
 it. It'll contain at least festival and speech-tools. Then it'll be needed to 
 contact the various maintainers of speech synthetisers to tell them the group 
 exists and invite them. To know them, only aptitude show and aptitude search 
 can help, it's very fastidious (that's why I cannot do this immediately). But 
 you can start sending a message if you want to some maintainers.

Dear Debian developers and contributors,

(Apologies for the cross post)

 The package description is:
  Festival offers a full text to speech system with various APIs, as well an
  environment for development and research of speech synthesis techniques. It
  includes a Scheme-based command interpreter.
  .
  Besides research into speech synthesis, festival is useful as a stand-alone
  speech synthesis program. It is capable of producing clearly understandable
  speech from text.

It has almost been 10 months since the RFA, and since filing it,
neither have we been able to step up in maintaining the package
better, nor did we receive any offers for help. Therefore,
regretfully, we have decided to orphan festival (and, in a subsequent
e-mail, speech-tools as well).

Since festival is a fairly important package, it deserves more care
and attention in keeping it up to date. So, it would be great if an
individual or team could step up to fill the void. Needless to say, we
would be glad to help out in the team as well as we can.

xThanks.

Jaldhar, Kartik and Kumar (erstwhile maintainers of festival and speech-tools)

Dear Debian users and contributors,

I request assistance with maintaining the festival (and speech-tools)

a TODO list and could do with some love. While I try to do my best

comfortable if someone else steps in to oversee, assist and,
eventually, take over maintenance of the package.
