Update:
I just got an email back from the developers....... REALLY fast response.
First of all, they said that they will work on the pronunciation issues I mentioned above soon. They don't have native English speakers on their development team.
I also mentioned to them that it would be REALLY great if they had regional accented English voices for the various parts of the world. They said it was a great idea... and are going to try to implement that concept for the future

! So, if they accomplish that..... we will all finally have the possibility to hear voices that are FAR more realistic than the default ones....... at least for the ATIS services.
best,
