Ok, after some googling, I found it. However so far as I can see, its not linked to on the main speech-dispatcher project page. > LY> * A vcs repository > In short time we will replace cvs with git which is now most used. Ok sounds good.

I appreciate that you went to the effort to ensure the site was usable by all, and that a CMS was used to develope the site. Since its seems Brailcom have everything that is needed, perhaps the move to freedesktop is not so important, however it is something to keep in mind for the future, shoudl speech-dispatcher become the speech standard for Linux Luke
