I will also add that producing an electronic copy will cost zippo,
while producing a hard print copy will be comparatively inexpensive
too as compared to braille, and it's better for the information to be
out there in as many forms as possible.
all the best,

There is always more to know, more to see, more to learn. The world is
vast and wondrous strange and there are more things benieth the stars
than even the archmaesters of the citadel can dream.

Subject: [Audyssey] braille/large print/other media
Thomas,
Hence the subject heading. I think you're right. While we shouldn't
limit such an attempt to just blindness awareness organizations, we
shouldn't limit the message to just braille either.
Eleanor, excellent. That's a good thing to have multiple checks and
inputs.
Braille folks: While I personally sympathize with your position, if
this is a serious effort to expand the audio games market, then it
needs to pursue all media we can. As Dark pointed out, adding an
electronic copy to a document being produced electronically is zero
cost. Though to some of us who do not have low vision sufficient to
read large print or play games, the idea might seem ludicrous, I'm
sure there are low vision people who probably take advantage of some
audio materials. Even if they do not now, there are people with
degenerative disorders that might be interested.
The point here, in gaining sponsors, pursuing leads, and casting our
bread on the waters, is to use as wide a net as possible. We lose
nothing by a little pre-planning and outreach now. We might gain a
lot. It's all too easy for this sort of effort to flop if people get
too territorial or single-minded.
Take care,
Jeremy
