I am uncomfortable with this policy too.  In my case, I am packaging
mostly software I have written myself (access software for various
speech synthesizers).  The likelihood of duplication of effort is
pretty low.

Nevertheless, to satisfy the letter of the policy, I hereby announce
my intent to (write and) release the following packages:

  emacspeak-bs    Emacspeak driver for the Braille 'n Speak synthesizer
  emacspeak-ap    Emacspeak driver for the Dolphin Apollo synthesizer
  emacspeak-ac    Emacspeak driver for the Accent synthesizer
  emacspeak-xx    Emacspeak driver for whatever other synthesizer I can
  		  get documentation for
