Hi everyone, I have been told that gwmicro.com and related web resources should be up again soon. Thanks for your patience.

Hi David: You are correct but remember they are under new management with new user interaction rules. In the past they notified us about changes so I am leaning twoard the fact they are just making changes to the site but not getting any notice is unusual from the GW Staff if a change is to be a major one. They will, of course, be changing the company name and all the web address names of their pages to reflect their new home but I would have thought they would notify us of such pending changes and down time. There is always the possibility... ya that's the ticket just cut bait and run home to papa fish. Anyway, my problem was something outside the arena of WindowEyes web sites since I thought I may have had a dns problem but it seems something else is afoot. And, being prepared is what I learned in Boy Scouts some 60 years ago or so, smile.

Could it, possibly, happen they just are experiencing unexpected technical issues? Or could it, possibly, be due to issues outside their control, i.e issues with the ISP servers? Even, could it be simple as a power-failure - due to whether conditions? Nope, I do have no answer. But relying on former experience, had this been the final migration to something else, I have seen the staff introduce us the new solutions. So just because the page is down for a day or two, I would not spin any speculations. Both this list, and the Scripting list, have received numbers of messages the last couple of days, so really not too much would be different at the moment. My guess is, even your screen reader may function as normal, no matter the page up or down currently. Should you be in search for a particular app, try advertise here, and maybe the app developer - or some other user - could send you the installation file, while we are awaiting further notice from the staff. If the site still is down a week from now, you could of course try call their support center, and ask what is going on. Smile. Point is, why jump to any conclusion at the moment?
