It seems to me that the only reason Apple will care to continue
developing VO is if they have something to gain, financially
speaking. So, one way to maximize the probability that they will
continue to improve VO is to compile, and provide apple with,
statistics about the number of potential users. They might listen
more closely if this was done by a group representing large numbers
of blind people. Those of you with greater experience in the blind
community probably know better than I who this group might be.

Just to quote myself.
I was told today from a rather reliable source that Apple has cut
back on continued development of VO. I mention this here because
it does concern me. And maybe we all need to contact apple.
It's not that they are going to discontinue the project, but
rather feel it's 'good enough' so no further resources need be
allocated to it's development.
I did not say, I heard they were going to cease development. But I
do feel there is enough concern to express to apple, our desire for
continued support.
It's a shame that some people feel they have to flame when they
don't agree.

Yes folks, we need to be careful about spreading
rumors...especially the "chicken little" variety. Indications are
that Apple is not ceasing accessibility development.
