Okay. In the whole way. I'm asking a technical question about the state-of-the-art
of the Text-to-Speech daemon of KDE formerly known as kttsd. The answers that I'm waiting
for are things like:

Prepare the package foo
Build speechd with foo as foo will be default bar in the future
Jovie in KDE 4.5 will be much more superiour than the KDE 4.4 one
Don't ever use the TTS engine called FooBar because it is obsoleted.

You have to technically convince me that the TTS stuff is totally broken in KDE SC 4
before telling me to provide KDE3 or GNOME counterparts.

Thanks
