speakup in raspberry pi modules

[Kelly Prescott]

I am speaking of the reference firmware and modules available from
there git hub at
git://github.com/raspberrypi/linux.git
git://github.com/raspberrypi/firmware.git
This is the reference builds and I believe that the packagers use this as 
a starting point for there packages.
Either way, even if they have not updated packages, you can download the 
images and modules, install them and use them.
If there is interest I will write a little howto on what steps to take to 
use this build.
I was going to repackage the kernels for speakup, but I suspect it will 
become standard now so I will wait a little longer.
I was going to make a arch and debian build.
