Well that is strange as I was offered all the new Javas up to the current one of java 7.2. I think what may be going on is that java 6 seems not to be capable of telling you the java 7 updates. but if you install 7, itt does. Probably something to do with when Oracle took over and altered the web site adress perhaps?

Well it would bbe good to have a place to get all the engines from that are free that is. I noticed you mentioned java7 on the java.com site all pcs I have have java 6.3 and it assures me that I am running the latest, out of interest what is java 7, i've not ever been offered it, I have java 6 standard on all systems as far as I know.

Once we finish the testing, we intend to develop a utility to enable users to add engines and voices. At the testing phase, we wanted to have a simple installation package for people to use.

We are pleased to announce SpeechHub the first cross platform TTS
server for the vision impaired community.

A TTS server receives text from talking applications such as NVDA and
converts it to speech.  SpeechHub is available as a plug-in for NVDA
which enables it to use the synthesizers supported by SpeechHub. When
you installed SpeechHub, a number of synthesizers are installed and
the NVDA plug-in is configured automatically; simply quit NVDA and
restart it again, select SpeechHub as the synthesizer and  select the
voice you want.

At present the installation of SpeechHub supports  the following
synthesizers:

- Mary TTS (known also as Open Mary), 4 English voices are installed.
- Pico TTS 6 languages are installed
- eSpeak, all languages and most voices.
- SAPI5, major languages, synthesizers installed on your computer.

We will provide more synthesizer support and voices in a variety of
languages in future versions.

Sonic support for high speed is built in for most synthesizers.
SpeechHub is highly responsive and for reliability engines are
monitored and restarted automatically if necessary.

The installer is currently hosted on a fairly low bandwidth server, so
your download may be fairly slow, especially if there is anyone else
downloading at the same time.  You can find more information including
instructions on download and installation here:

http://www.speechhub.org

This version is still in alpha, we have tested it extensively with
help from the community and we believe it works well.  Nevertheless,
use at your own risk.

Assuming people are courteous and the moderator does not mind we will
hang around this list and reply to questions.

Regards,
Bill Cox and Isaac Porat
