 >        Can you make a port of Speak Freely for the ports section?

     My only reservation is that at this point my fixes are hacks, not a
port.  I'd like to hear from some of the Voxware/TASD folks as to whether
these were the most reasonable fixes given existing Voxware functionality
before treating this as a port.  After a FreeBSD package for SF 6.0 is in
place, the best fix would be to then get the appropriate changes rolled
into the Speak Freely source distribution.

     When I get some time, I'll follow up on this.  Haven't packaged a
FreeBSD port before, but looks like there's plenty of info on that in the
handbook.
