[lojban-beginners] espeak text to speach ; feedback needed



I worked on the rules for espeak and have gotten to the point where I
need more outside help to determine if there are any faults that need
correction before I send it upstream.

Chris done is hosting the files at http://www.jbotcan.org/jbo_test/

jbo_dictsource-20080827.tar.gz	2008-Aug-28 00:53:13	5.0K
this has my modified jbo_list and jbo_rules
 you need to do a `speak --compile=jbo` to have the changes take effect.

jbo_test.txt	2008-Aug-28 00:52:07	6.3K
This is a test file used to generate the below sample sound files.

jbo_test.mp3	2008-Aug-28 01:04:46	3.1M
jbo_test.spx	2008-Aug-28 00:53:06	1.9M	
jbo_test.wav	2008-Aug-28 00:53:05	17.4M	

they were generated from `speak -f jbo_test.txt -v jbo -w
jbo_test.wav` and then the spx and mp3 were compressed from that.

It sounds a bit fast as the default is around 170  words per minute.
`speak -f jbo_test.txt -v jbo -w jbo_test.wav -s 90` might be better
at only about 90 words per minute.

If you know how lojban is suppose to sound please give feedback.
And thank you .
