TheAmigo hasn't been seen around these parts for quite some time, so I'm not sure what's going on there..

Just in the last couple days I've started skimming the boards, but not really keeping up.

It doesn't look like I'm going to have much time work on ttsd anymore If you'd like to be the new official maintainer, I'd be happy to know it has a new home

IIRC 1.0a3 was the last posting I made. The archive includes all the modified source and I may have even put a couple comments in the code, but no promises It took surprisingly little work to get flite running on the empeg. For my initial tests, I was able to get flite running without even recompiling! I think it was the iPaq binaries that ran stock.

Anyway, maybe a mix of ttsd and pre-recordings would work even better:
turn in 300 meters to the right on krxoff
So the directions are clear and as a bonus, a proper noun is available.
