In fact, we are allowed to sell Voxin to the US.
The sentence from the home page is:
Note please that our association can distribute Voxin worldwide except to 
the following countries where IBM has exclusive dealing arrangements: Abu

Hi Beate,


It would be nice to have a licence/pricing overview on the above page.
Is there any testing setup available before any money is spent?



For avoiding to clutter the home page, these info are displayed in the 
followining pages of the website.
In summary: Voxin is sold 4.29 EUR (or $5.78) by the Oralux.org 
association (no benefit).
The three licenses (End-User, IBM, LGPL) have to be accepted before 
purchasing the software.
Yes, audio samples, benchmark would be better. In fact, Voxin has been 
firstly built because some visually impaired persons have been looking 
to Viavoice (for ages). Besides it, the IBM licence does not allow to 
broadcast online audio samples.


Most interesting for me is the response time of the keyboard echo (which 
in oralux is only acceptable with the kernel supported speech synthesizer.




So the same speech synthesizer was most responsive with SpeakUp, is not it?

Gilles

Hi Hank,

In Voxin 0.15, there are now packages for Gusty (the gnome speech or 
speech dispatcher drivers), the installer for the emacspeak speech 
server has been tested with Gusty.

Hello all,

Voxin 0.15 has just been released. It is compliant with Ubuntu Gusty.

I had two feedbacks from customers who faced issues in updating the IBM 
TTS speech drivers for Gusty. So, a voxin update is available online:

Best regards,
