Please have a look at http://packages.qa.debian.org/speakup
It is already in testing, and is being integrated in the debian
Installer.

Please define "forever".
It's all about the difference between "bleeding edge" and "stable". I'm
quite happy that Debian people are quite careful about new software
which might not be so stable. That doesn't mean that they don't
integrate it once it really is stable. Lenny (scheduled for september)
_will_ have iceweasel 3 for instance.
