Gnome-speech provides a simple general API for producing text-to-speech (TTS) output. It also provides drivers for several TTS engines, both commercial and open source.

The gnome-speech 0.4.9 release is designated for GNOME 2.17/18 but also works well with GNOME 2.16.x.

Many thanks to Gilles Casse and Leonardo Boshell for their contributions to this release.
