hello all accessibility gurus on the list. after using ubuntu, it is for the first time that I felt like promoting gnu/linux amongst the blind community. gentelmen, you are doing a great job and I think by the end of this year november, ubuntu should be pritty accessible. I am going to speak at a national conference on software interfacing for daily computing. accessibility is a major focus of that conference and I have been invited to speak on this issue and my lecture has been put as a highlite of the conference, because I am talking on accessibility freedom of blind. as I may have mentioned we have already scheduled a nation wide campaign for promotion of ubuntu linux amongst the blind computer users. I am speaking in the conference in 3 days from now. I need some detailed information on the following points. 1. what is the current state of general accessibility of gnome desktop with orca on ubuntu? 2. will gnopernicus development absolutely stop in favour of orca? 3. how accessible will be openoffice when ubuntu 6.10 is released? 4. at the release of ubuntu 6.10, what will be the level of accessibility of firefox or any other web browser like mozila? 5. how soon will be the tutorial for orca finalised? currently there are no keyboard commands given for web surffing or for reading open office spreadsheets or word processor documents. 6. what can organisations do to become a part of orca development and feature enhancement with respect to gnome accessibility? 7. what knowledge is expected to work on gnome accessibility and the orca source code? Please give me some very detailed information on these issues it is very urgent! I hope henrik as usual will be up with good info so will be mike and the rest. thanks in advance. Krishnakant.
