I get where Sieghard is coming from, but I'd suggest that he could have
just not assumed the worst and just asked some questions for more
information, such as "Before I click on anything could you tell us a
little bit more about ...?" Alternatively, he could have also just hit
the delete button. On the other side, I'd say Yuma could just try to
ignore the negativity in Sieghard's message and see that he is asking
for more information which would be good to see on the list.

Hello Everyone,
I am posting this to the thread more as a mediator than a moderator.
Yuma, we get a lot of unwelcomed and unauthorized solicitations on this list
so, I can certainly understand Sieghard's skepticism, given the lack of an
introduction, as he defines it.
Sieghard, Yuma is a long-time member of the Mac Visionaries mailing list, in
good standing.
Given how rare it is to have a blind programmer actively developing
Apple-related apps, I hope that everyone, who is interested, will give Yuma
your full support.
Mark

First of all, you say you are co-founder of " Oseyeris", what exactly is that,
it isn't exactly a word that is descriptive in nature.
Also, you say you are passionate about astronomy and physics, but you don't
even start out your message by introducing yourself, you don't end with a
salutation including your name and you are soliciting support for your Podcast
and app without apparently having asked Mark or Cara if it is OK to do so.
Given how often one is "invited" to do something these days I am certainly not
clicking on your link to fill out a contact form and I hope others are smart enough not
to do so. If you had started with a proper introduction and a sentence saying that you
received permission from the list owner or moderator to post this I might have felt
differently.
Regards,
Sieghard

Hi Everyone,
Firstly, is anyone interested in a podcast interview about how they see the
ssky as being, if they learn aspects of space, planets and other objects we
can't see as blind people in the sky. I have a podcast series that covers 3D
programming for audio, and related technologies.
I am co-founder of Oseyeris, and have been working on an app so I can
understand where the planets are, how they cycle around me in the real world,
as astronomy and physics are something I am passionate about.
Second, I would like to invite you to test a star gazing app for the blind.
Please follow this link, and put your name on the email list. if already
subscribed, your test flight will be sent very shortly.
I am very interested in hearing your opinions about how stars should be represented,
though I have laid out the initial audio "feel" of space.

Have a great day y'all
A++
