Voxforges aim is to collect samples from "representative" speakers of a 
language to model a general speech model. While the effort is very commendable 
and important, it doesn't really help here - except maybe as a base for an 
adapted model but even there I'd doubt it would yield better results than a 
model built from scratch with the adaption set used as the trainings corpus.

Best regards,
