But while working on it I wondered about the following: How important are these kind of voices for the accessibility community? If deemed crucial, I am willing to spend time on improving the situation. Like standardizing descriptions and work flow to allow more voices (especially languages I guess) to enter. Are the 8kHz voices still needed (looks like they may have been needed in the past due to hardware requirements, but I expect all hardware nowadays could run the 16kHz voices without any issue? Upstream there a lot more voices (15 additional ones to the ones we ship) which I expect to be of higher quality, should we package this and improve our defaults? Does anybody have an idea how to find additional languages (except for just duck-duck-go-ing (the name festival doesn't help to target what I am looking for). Should this all be under the TTS umbrella? Paul
