Hey friends,
I have been following this thread since the beginning and yeah
unfortunately not everybody have the chance to get new stuff either
software or hardware. As someone had mentioned here, a lot of
governements doen't spend a cent to provide disabled people with
anything at all, it's the case here in Morocco too. But i think at the
same time that yeah technology is flying, and of course if we can not
afford to fly after it, we'll be left so far behind...
I have a suggestion: Can't we start a pitition asking for more
accessibility in the coming skype versions? Skype used to do very well
in terms of accessibility especially with dug scripts and we need them
to keep what they have started in versions 2.x and 3.x. I think they
might consider our needs if they get informed.
All the best

I don't wish to knock the commercials, but as I am one of the promoters of
NVDA, then if the user can't afford a JAWS upgrade, but can afford a new
computer with new operating system etc, then they could give NVDA a try. After
all it's free and is improving by the day. For most users the current stable
release, 2010.1, will fit their needs. The daily snapshots (builds) contain
display hooking, which uses techniques to communicate with the application
directly, rather than using MSAA code. Staying on topic, this could mean Skype
menus are fully accessible. Just my £0.02 worth.

Jim,
I think you need to take into consideration that not everybody has the money to
upgrade their computers. I personally agree with you to some extend but it's
not fair for you to talk that way considering that some people really can't
afford the luxury of a new computer, let alone a screen reader which costs an
arm and a leg unfortunately. If you are able to afford all this, then that's
great but not everyone is in the same situation as you are. The other thing is
that there are probably people from different countries on this list and some
governments do not help blind people buy a new computer or a screen reader so
that also needs to be taken into consideration. Unfortunately, not everyone is
fortunate and we all need to remember that instead of bashing those who don't
upgrade their skype, computers, Jaws and what not.
