[Homeros] Для поддержания новогоднего настроения!

[Michael Pozhidaev]

Привет всем!

Поскольку дело неуклонно движеться в сторону Нового года, всем от души
желаю хорошего настроения в праздничные дни и удачи в новом году!
Вчера получил достаточно приятный отзыв из-за рубежа, текст которого привожу
ниже. Это отзыв на нашу раннюю выложенную бету дистрибутива на основе
emacspeak. Письмо прислал г-н Janusz Chmiel из Чехии. С позволения
подписчиков не перевожу его, так как такие вещи интересно читать в
оригинале, но если для кого-нибудь это будет необходимо, то, конечно же, 
переведу. 

   I have tested The live CD and i have found it very useful. The
Espeak and Mbrola is working reliably and The responsiveness is
ammazing. And, and this is very important, there are no random crashes
while Espeak or Mbrola is speaking and if user is pressing some keys
very fast. So Voiceman is really excellent platform for controlling
speech synthesizers.
Only i have found out, that in some situations, voiceman is
giving controls to Espeak and to Mbrola Russian voice ramdomly. For
example, if i AM activating Bash shell supported by Emacs, when i am
typing apt-get update, after pressing Enter key, voiceman is sending
strings to Mbrola russian voice.
I used shiftF9 before launching shell to give a control to Espeak.
If user is pressing various letters, Espeak is pronouncing those
letter correctly. But if for example i am typing apt-get update in The
shell followed by Enter key, after pressing enter, Mbrola is speaking
some information.

But my impression in general is very good. I AM thinkink about solving
issues with live installer. There is draklive-install, may be, that
modifiing The source code of this GTK based PClinux os based program
would help.
I will test Ubuntu development release for QT4 support with at-spi,
but if Gnome is 2.93, it is not 3.0 and may be, that QT4 support will
be really awailable in future.

I AM lookingfforward to next testing releases.
I will intesively test it for random crashes while producing speech,
but i think, that Voiceman is really excellent platform, which is
bringing reliable and fast interface for controlling various speech
synthesizers.
Very well done.
