Re: Brainstorm.ubuntu.com inaccessible account creation process
OK, thanks Alan. Nevermind about the question on the account creation. In rereading the post, I now understand what account was being referred to. Sorry for my stupidity!

I'm also not sure about the relationship between Gnome and Unity, but I thought 12.04 would be shipping with Unity and not Gnome 3. Unity is a shell for Gnome, but it is not Gnome-Shell. Unity will be shipping with most of the stuff that is considered the Gnome 3 desktop, but there will be some bits and pieces that are Gnome 2 I believe. The Gnome desktop is a heap of applications from the Gnome project, including stuff like Gedit, Orca etc. One application in the full Gnome 3 desktop is Gnome-Shell. That isn't being shipped by default but that application can be installed.

Re: Brainstorm.ubuntu.com inaccessible account creation process
What account creation process are you talking about? Where are you trying to create an account? I'm not going to say you don't have valid reasons to be disappointed, but I wouldn't give up hope on 12.04 altogether. We're only a week or two past feature freeze, and we're only on the first beta for 12.04. I agree it would have been better if accessibility had played a bigger role during the design and development phases, but there is still time to get bugs resolved. I'm also not sure about the relationship between Gnome and Unity, but I thought 12.04 would be shipping with Unity and not Gnome 3.

Brainstorm.ubuntu.com inaccessible account creation process
I thought I'd post to Brainstorm about this, so I wrote a letter. Only, the account creation process uses an ASCII CAPTCHA with no audio equivalent. I can't even run that past WebVisum. I'll figure something else out, I guess. Ugh this is disheartening.
