The Czech voice is complete in Debian now.  The remark in
festival-czech/README.Debian is obsolete.

The Spanish voice contains some non-DFSG free part and is not present in
Debian (it's probably present in the non-free section of Debian
infrastructure).

You can look at http://festlang.berlios.de/languages.html.  The list is
"overcomplete" (it contains references to non-released voices too), but
you could probably find other free voices not listed above there.
