I suggested moving this discussion off list as I've found in the past that general accessibility issues on a distribution specific list are not always welcomed. If the general feeling of list participants is that this sort of discussion is on topic, interesting and useful, I have no problems keeping it on the list.
Having said that, I also think it would be valuable if we try to also consider and discuss, what, if anything, we can do to improve the situation on Ubuntu in particular and linux in general. While I do feel slightly out of my depth with respect to VR related issues, I am still interested in the topic. I do think we need to have some focus on what we can do to improve the situation, even if that improvement is only to increase awareness and understanding of the issues. What I'd like to avoid is ending up in a circular discussion of the issues which ends up being only a philosophical debate that simply re-hashes the same old accessibility issues we are all too familiar with. It would be good if we could arrive, after discussion and debate, at a point where some strategy could be defined to actually move things forward. Is this possible or do we still need to understand the issue more? Are we in a position to even look at this yet or do we still need to work at understanding the issue and what may be possible. Do we run a risk of over thinking things and what we really need to do is just push full speed ahead and damn the torpedoes or do we need to gather more resources and people before we can do anything? So many questions, so little time! Tim Pia writes: > I just wanted to ask that you guys not take this topic off list.
