Re : Re: A new tts on Linux

[MENGUAL Jean-Philippe]

Hi,

Thanks Kyle for honest feedback, although I'm not surprised.

I don't know when was born Kali, the security distro. Kali tts was born in 1996. And is the result of years of research by Caen University. So I think we cannot change the name of such product. I noticed several time the point, but I won't ask to Kali to change name explaning that another project in the world has the same one. And I don't think confusion is easy between both purposes.

Regards,


Jean-Philippe MENGUAL
