Yes, since its now in Debian, it can be merged/udpated for Ubuntu maverick.

Thanks for your offer of help. Even though I proposed that change, this does 
not mean I will totally abandon maintaining the speech-dispatcher package in 
Ubuntu. I still hoep that both projects can one day merge and work together 
again.

There are a few differences in packaging for Ubuntu that need to be carried, so 
the update procedure for this package now is what is known as a merge. This 
shouldn't take me too long to do, so I'm willing to help whereever I can to get 
this updated.
