Coincidentally I emailed Wil just yesterday on this very topic.  I've been 
using Cepstral Swift voices via Festival under Linux but feel that a 
native Swift driver would be a much better solution.

I'm going to look at writing a Swift driver for Gnome-speech but obviously 
don't want to duplicate effort - so if anyone else is doing such a thing 
please holler. :)

In case it's of use to the original poster , Cepstral have a Perl script 
on their website that makes Swift voices available under Festival.  I find 
the end result somewhat sluggish but since I'm doing it all under VMware 
wouldn't want to try and generalize my experiences to all cases.

Regards,
Garry
