well svn is available, and in fact, i'm sure git is available, as another 
project i no about used to run a git repository till switching to svn and a 
large number of its users run cygwin environments.
the distro i'm looking at running is based off a slax distribution, which is 
actually based off slackware so in theery i see no reason why speakup can't 
work with it, provided of course that I can get the patching in cygwin to 
work which I don't see a reason for not working.
the distro itself though is a custom one.
