Dear Friends:

Just a quick update to our earlier announcement about the new
SpeakupModified Fedora 9 ...

The Fedora release is now official, and our iso images and rpm packages
now also incorporate the very latest from the official Fedora release.
So, we're no longer a late beta release, and you'll see the digit '9' in
our filenames, rather than the beta designation Fedora uses, 'rawhide.'

The SpeakupModified Home Page is at:

http://SpeakupModified.Org

You can also access our files using ftp or rsync with commands like:

ftp://ftp.SpeakupModified.Org/speakupmodified/fedora/ rsync -l
speakupmodified.org::speakupmodified VERY IMPORTANT: The command syntax
for starting speech during installation and in your grub.conf has
changed. You should now use a '.' rather than an '_' for instance:

speakup.synth=ltlk

Also, the name for the software speech Speakup device has changed. To
start that device in grub, but not start speech until after your login
do:

speakup.synth=soft speakup.quiet=1
