It seems like this is another dead mozilla project now, given that the people who worked on this started a new project: https://github.com/coqui-ai

You can see some Coqui[0] TTS examples here[1].

I work on TTS (created https://vo.codes) and my impression of the Mozilla project was that it was incredibly understaffed. Unrealistically so to ever lead to any kind of product or platform.

Maybe this new organization can accomplish the goal of easy and open trainable TTS. I'd really like to see it.

understaffed -> it was only me and still only me but with a great list of contributors :)

Thanks for doing this! I got it running immediately and I'm impressed and will try it in a project I have in mind plus spread the good word.

I would really love to see you get funding for developing an open platform for TTS that can offer commercial options that fuel growth. I really want to see your work scale. Easy TTS from custom data needs to be a thing.

Good job with the stuff you've built, and good luck!
