Hahaha
It's still, ahem, play it by ear.  But the APIs are documented in IDL
files and are pretty easy to read and understand.  The main issue is
that the current version of gnome-speech doesn't explain what the
expected ParameterList might contain.  There is an API call to get
the parameter names but you have to guess from there.

We are planning a significant update to gnome-speech that will look
a whole lot like JSAPI, but the current version is expected to be our
API for a while yet.  You should be able to run 'idlj' on the IDL files
and get Java client stubs from that.  If you want pointers on that, let
me know, I may have a little time next week for that.

best regards,
