The Qt library recently gained rudimentary text-to-speech capabilities, 
and it was decided to not develop Jovie further. Applications now use 
the QtSpeech API, instead of talking to Jovie, but some remaining ones 
might still need to be ported over.

If you are interested to improve TTS in QtSpeech[1], I suggest to 
contact Qt developers via the development qt mailing list[2].

For more information about QtSpeech, please see [3] and [4].
