Re: Webanywhere Language Module
Cameron Wong
This is really a great news! Could you please send me the translation
files? Then I can check them in the SVN. If you have a regular update
for the translation, I think Jeff can grant you the SVN writing
permission.
What TTS are you using? eSpeak?
I will discuss with Jeff how to put Hindi language online. Thanks!

Thanks for your translation!
I've checked in the code to WA's svn. And I have updated on my server
in China: http://wa.eguidedog.net. When you open the URL, it should
relocate you to http://wa.eguidedog.net/select_lang.php. You will hear
voice then. the item 4 is Hindi language. Please let me know if there
is anything wrong.
Also, I haven't update eSpeak on my server for some time. I don't know
whether Hindi language has improved. Please let me know if I should
update it for Hindi language.
Another thing I want to know is, how is the speed of WA server in
China from India, comparing to the one in US
http://wa.cs.washington.edu/? Is it acceptable?
Thanks again!
Jeff,
Could you please update the code on your server? Just adding one line
in config.php and copy the new folder locale/hi.
