That is a good time!  I have just created the 'access'
floppy flavour in d-i.  Check it out from CVS, we basicly
just have to set a special kernel version/name, and build with that.
The access flavour currently supports brltty.  But if it would be
equipped with a speakup-kernel, it could support both.

A little tip to get started: You need to build 
kernel-image-xxx-udeb packages.  Probably the best way to get
it up and running is to look at the current kernel-image-xxx-udeb
packages and see how they are done.  If you can come up with
working udebs for speakup-enabled kernels, integrating that into the
access flavour should be fairly easy.
