Monday, May 31, 2010  Renaming kttsd  Hey all, I thought I
already blogged about this topic, but found I didn't. Anyway,
one of the things I wanted to get done while in Randa was to
rename KTTSD (Kde Text To Speech Daemon) to something with a
meaning that is pronounceable. It's changed a lot since 4.0 (and
3.5, etc.) so a new name fits. A user suggested the name Kitty
on a previous blog post, so I used that for about a day until
another developer pointed out that Kitty exists ( though it
seems outdated/unmaintained. The next morning in Randa, we had a
brainstorm session with other developers and came up with a few
choices. We went with Jovie which happens to be a less commonly
known and used name (and is also one of my daugther's name). So
new in kde 4.5 Jovie will talk to everyone (if you or your
distro setup speech-dispatcher correctly, etc. etc.)  Next step?
Move the developer page from about kttsd that's outdated to
techbase and update it for D-Bus, 4.x documentation.   Tim
