Well they all know now.
I hope i've done the right thing, I hope it doesn't come down like a landslide.
I certainly wouldn't anyone to make it comertual, its free, however it may bee.
But if its not supported in windows major readers, then maybee we are

We now have a free synth to use it with, now we must make it.
We are halfway there.
However, saying that, the ibm viavoice us english voices are quite close to
eloquence, so that could bee supported.
The trial of hpr has them so they are also free to us.
