from the NetBSD maintainer:
This voice provides an American English male voice using a residual
excited LPC diphone synthesis module, both created at OGI. It uses
a lexicon compiled from MOBY and CMU lexicons, and other trained
modules used by CSTR voices.
This voice can be activated via (voice_mwm_diphone) .

Reset maintainership to ports@ after ~4 months without any response to any
PR.
Thanks for contributing.
Since the acroread7 port is a somewhat important port for our users, I
will hand it over to emulation@ if no _active_ *committer* takes it
before the ports freeze.
While I'm here:
- fix a little nit in the csound port (I think the intention was to
create no backup file instead of creating one with a "-e" extension)
- set ARCH to i386 in the amd64 case for the acroread7 port. This
is a work-around to be able to install everything when a dependency
is not already installed (ARCH is read-only in sub-makes, so the
dependencies can't change it). This should be removed when the
dependencies are fixed or converted to use bsd.linux-rpm.mk. [1]

new virtual category requested: accessibility
This category, to be described as "of interest to disabled
users" is intended to make it simpler for users to find
software which will let them overcome a handicap. For
example, blind users may want to combine OCR and text-to-speech
software so the computer can read books to them; users with
diminished eyesight can use large fonts and "magnifiers";
paralyzed users may use speech recognition to compose text
or give commands.
