Just to report progress and status, I created the package here: https://alioth.debian.org/plugins/scmgit/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?p=tts/festvox-us-slt-hts.git;a=summary
I am no longer interested in looking for a sponsor for the package, and the packaging itself is probably outdated (last commit August 2014). If anyone is willing to make the effort of packaging it and maintaining it, feel free to do so. 2015-12-27 13:16 GMT+01:00 Lucas Nussbaum <lu...@debian.org>: > retitle 747618 RFP: festvox-us-slt-hts -- US English voice for Festival. > 32kHz sample rate, HTS > noowner 747618 > tag 747618 - pending > thanks > > Hi, > > A long time ago, you expressed interest in packaging festvox-us-slt-hts. > Unfortunately, > it seems that it did not happen.
