Gnome-speech

[Marc Mulcahy <marc mulcahy sun com>]

In my work with the Gnome Accessibility project, the need has arisen for a 
generalized interface to various text-to-speech engines and possibly 
eventually dictation engines.  I have the humble beginnings of a project I 
preliminarily called gnome-speech, which defines the general Bonobo-based 
interfaces to the speech synthesis and eventually possibly the 
speechDictation engines.  This project also currently contains two sample 
implementations.  I would like to add this project to cvs as module 
"gnome-speech", and would also appreciate any comments and feedback 
regarding this idea.  Also, where should the OAF and IDL interfaces be 
defined in terms of the GNOME namespace?

Thanks,

Marc
