While I can not really step up to maintain it, I can answer your last
question. Removal of Emacspeak is simply not acceptable. There is an
alternative impelementation, but I am not sure if it is actively
maintained by its upstream still. Emacspeak has its fanbase, and we
should provide (up-to-date) packages to satify them.
