RB has text to speech and is SAPI5 compatible, what?

SAPI 4 can co-exist with SAPI 5. As it stands I do have code to get text to
speech working with SAPI 5, see if I can squeeze it in between now and
release. I'm just wondering what bugzilla number is this, and why hasn't it
been voted on or marked critical?!

WRT XML working on Win95, that's on my to-do list and needs to be resolve
before final.

Best,
