well there's jupiter and yasr. don't know anything about jupiter but 
yasr is pretty good. used it once.

I'd like to see speakup in a distro, integrated seamlessly like in 
slackware. I'd also like to see the gui accessibility components 
preconfigured as best as possible so as to get a new user up and 
running quickly if the gui is what they want to use.
