The only time I've ever seen such endeavors succeed is when there's some
sort of editorial schedule in place. Mapping out what you want to see
published over a certain period of time (say 2-3 months) makes it a lot
easier to poke people to step up and write something.

I would love to see the open source community evolve its thinking to
integrate captioning at all times, and not just for specific things like
conferences.

As I recall, there's about 3 days of exhibit hall time. And it kicks
off with a general meet n greet within the exhibit hall the first night
incl horsey doors. (No I cannot spell that appetizer word to save my

There is literally a boatload of accessibility fairs and conferences in
the United States alone and if funded, you could keep an A11y
"ambassador" quite busy with travel. On the downside, these events are
rather costly to attend as well. The CSUN conference alone was

So, I hope someone can do this. I'll not be in the country at the time,
so I can't do this. But do let me know if you're willing to do this so
I know what's ha

So... if you're interested in playing a more active role in promoting
the goodness of GNOME's accessibility efforts, let me know. There's
more than enough room for you all
assist if possible.
We will, however, probably be stepping up our efforts to present
sessions at more general events to raise awareness of GNOME's role with
accessibility to the general FOSS Community.

Hiya folks,
I wanted to start the process of getting our extended GNOME-related
videos up on YouTube, including the recent hour-long sessions covered at
the CSUN A11y conference. In order to do that, we need to get a
