This is great news George!  I intend to develop an output module for Speech 
Dispatcher.

I downloaded the sdk using the following commands:

cvs -d:pserver:anonymous cvs sourceforge net:/cvsroot/ibmtts-sdk login 
 
cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anonymous cvs sourceforge net:/cvsroot/ibmtts-sdk co
-P sdk

While the license has changed in the code, the included LICENSE file is still 
Common Public License.
