Hi Jeremy,
Yes, for those of us who, like me, have some free time and who don't require payment. I know from my personal experience writing apps how much goes into writing them. If the app-development process could be subdivided into smaller tasks and the pieces delegated to individuals, then, possibly apps could be out the door quicker. I like writing apps, but I want to work on apps that people really need, because it makes the work much more inspirational when one knows that there are people waiting for this one to come out. Just today, in fact, a lister mentioned Sonar, and, although I don't use it, clearly there is some demand for improved accessibility, since I have heard about it several times over the past few months. Now, for me, I'd have to start from scratch, I'd have to find the program on the web, look it over, and see what I could do with it. Now, GW Micro has an app for it, and I guess it needs updating, since WE users are saying so. Naturally, then, my feeling is: let's go! It's easier to fix this app if the app author has done the ground work and then can simply say to a few of us, "Okay, Sonar has changed, and so we'd need to do such and such to get it accessible again." I guess you see where I'm going.

Just a thought.

This would, I feel, further the endeavour to make more and more software accessible. Up to now, I see too many people with amazing skills all running in different directions, skills which, if organized on one project at a time, could do more work, and take less time to get it done.

If you could have a feature in Window-Eyes, what would it be? Please keep in mind that the next version is improving web support, so we are looking for your opinion on what you would like to see in the future. Please note that we cannot commit to implement every suggestion, but we certainly welcome your feedback. Thanks!
