Well why not just go on to its GitHub page and remove all the licenses and
just replace them with the general public license?

Subject: What a find! DECTalk!
I'm happy to be in the fediverse right now. Looking through my timeline, I
just
found a link to a Github repository that has DECTalk source code,
apparently
released by some of the original DECTalk developers.
https://github.com/dectalk/dectalk
The LICENSE file still has scary words like "proprietary" and
"confidential"
and "all rights reserved," but the source builds and works. I have it
working
in speech-dispatcher with Orca as I write this.
Note that this is the DECTalk software version 4.x, the one that sounds
just
like the DECTalk Express from the 1990's, so anyone who needs hardware
speech
should feel right at home with this. No, this is not the 5.x DECTalk that
really sounds like crap. Have fun and enjoy, and I do hope they fix this
license soon. It would be good to have another truly free speech
synthesizer to
play with, and this is definitely a huge step in that direction.
