Topic: text to speech on an infocast
i've created an app called xPLChumbyTTS that makes the infocast play an mp3 containing whatever TTS you want spoken. it uses the xPL networking protocol and a few bits & pieces so it's not straight forward. the main part is the app that runs on a windows pc & uses SAPI to generate the speech and a python script that runs on your infocast parsing xPL messages as it gets them. there's more details and a download link here http://goo.gl/L0jKP
