Bug#730983: Festival Voices and Czech voices

[MENGUAL Jean-Philippe <mengualjeanphi@free.fr>]

Hi,

I fully agree to have these packages maintained by the TTS group. It was 
created for such purpose, although I do not make it active for time 
reasons. But it is an excellent idea. We can assume the group is active 
and ready to maintain this. I add that anyway, the fact that we don't 
speak Czech isn't a big problem, in particular because packaging doesn't 
imply to use and speak czech. Obviously, if Peter has some Czech network 
to help us, it's still better!

Thanks again for your work and ask if I can help, even if I know I'm not 
very active just now.

Regards,
