Someone have to do the work. So you do not need to convince me that it is useful feature. As I said I do not think that SUSE will sponsor such work, but it can be done as side project by community or by SUSE as part of hackweek. But for that goal I need to know what needs to be done and ideally how to test it? E.g. I expect mouse is useless for blind people right? so you use keyboard only? Or do you have/need special hardware? I do not know any blind people around who I can ask, so I expect that you involve and helps with testing and also with answering questions when we start implementing it. E.g. you can be co-mentor if we add it as Google Summer of Code project. Josef -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] To contact the owner, e-mail: [email protected]
