Hi Mohammed ๐Ÿ‘‹

Great work on VoiceTut-TTS v2 โ€” I use it fully offline for Egyptian-Arabic voice-cloning workflows on a very old CPU-only laptop (AMD A8 from 2014, 14.9 GB RAM, no AVX2). I'm 16 and I'm building a local Arabic voice assistant on that machine.

I noticed cairo-tts 0.2.0 on PyPI (Oct 14), and the model card for mohammedaly22/Cairo-TTS appeared around the same day โ€” but as of today both the model repo and the Space return 404. I've been polling the repo since Oct 17 without luck, so I wanted to ask directly:

  1. Are the Cairo-TTS weights going to be public, and roughly when?
  2. If they are private for now, is there any chance of getting access?

My environment is already set up and verified (pip install cairo-tts + CPU torch), and I'd be glad to test it on CPU-only hardware without AVX2 and send back real metrics (TTFA / RTF / streaming behaviour) plus Egyptian-dialect samples.

Thanks a lot!
