Hello, I am not Doug of course, but I believe I can help answer this question. As you have indicated in your message Skype 4.0 is still in beta. This by definition means that it is still a moving target. So therefore, developing scripts for a beta product takes considerably more time and effort than any stable release. Before updating the scripts any further Doug will need to see what internal accessibility implementation is made. for a beta product it would be sort of pointless to implement accessibility only to find that internal implementation, was made later also, if any user interfaces are changed. The scripts will necessarily need to undergo some sort of adjustment. Doug is meeting with developers to discuss accessibility implementation I think we can all rest assured that once Doug knows what accessibility implementation will be made and what user interface changes will be made that Skype scripts for 4.0 will be made available for jaws for Windows. I would also love to see Doug examine window eyes, and perhaps develop scripts for Skype for that product as well. GW micro has provided scripts for window eyes, but they are nowhere near as robust as the ones we have for jaws. I hope this information is useful. Thank you for reading.
