I think GWSkype would be ok to discuss on this list as long as we stick to the actual use of GWSkype and not the technical programming and desired features since these are matters for GW Micro and it's list.
If one asks a question or requests a feature of GWSkype, this will turn the list into long threads that most on this list will not want to have to read or constantly delete messages. God forbid they do in fact put out a new feature or fix a bug, there will be hundreds of messages posted here of 0 value.

In terms of voting, the "All in favor, say Aye," call went out already, and was answered. I have put forth the "All opposed, say No," call now, so I'm only listening for people who don't want GW Skype discussed here. :) Sorry, I forgot to say that clearly in my initial post.

This is an e-mail list for blind users of Skype, and since GWSkype will be used primarily by the blind (not only Window-Eyes users), I feel it should be considered on topic for this list. -------------------------------------------------- From: "Doug Lee" <[email protected]> Sent: Wednesday, December 28, 2011 9:18 AM To: "screen readers' access with skype." <[email protected]> Subject: [Skypeenglish] GW Skype and this mailing list >I must hereby cast my vote in favor of allowing GW Skype to be >discussed on this list, even if for a trial period.
