Thank you Alex.

"Really great to know, thank you very much! Do you integrate the Compiz 
Hypra version on F123? The most advantage is the focus tracking capability."

We plan to, but we have not yet been able to due to lack of time. Too 
much time spent with trying to figure out HTS voices.

"What do you mean by that arm installation of mbrola? DO you help Debian 
to compile Mbrola on ARM?"

No, we have been working with Arch Linux, and as far as I know, we have 
been the first to bring MBROLA to the Raspberry Pi, and have also 
contributed to improvements in eSpeak-NG.

"I understand. I'm doing my best to contribute in QA on various project."

I think that the work of the Hypra team is extremely valuable and I want 
to speak with you guys one of these days off list about ways in which we 
might cooperate.

Fernando
