+Subject: speakup: lower default software speech rate
+
+commit cfd757010691eae4e17acc246f74e7622c3a2f05 upstream.
+
+Speech synthesis beginners need a low speech rate, and trained people
+want a high speech rate.  A medium speech rate is thus actually not a
+good default for neither.  Since trained people will typically know how
+to change the rate, better default for a low speech rate, which
+beginners can grasp and learn how to increase it afterwards
+
+This was agreed with users on the speakup mailing list.
