Hi. As some of you might already know, the Debian Accessibility Project webpages include a relevant software listing[1] which tries to unify all accessibility related package descriptions into one nicely sub-linked webpage. This page is *not* autogenerated, since in some cases, it makes more sense to slightly rewrite the package descriptions. Please review this listing, and report items that: * Are missing. * Could use better wording. * Are out-dated. * You know the hardware vendor URL for. Some of these software items actually support AT hardware. I tried to link to the relevant vendors product info page wherever possible, especially within the BRLTTY description[2]. I think such visibility is only good for communication with AT vendors, perhaps they might one time even realize that their hardware is working out-of-the-box on Debian... And of course, it is nice for our users if they can immediately see if their piece of hardware is supported.

On the upside of things, this workshop looks really promising, esp. regarding the long-standing http://debian.org/devel/debian-accessibility/software.html#i18nspeech issue. More on this later. -- CYa, Mario | Debian Developer <URL:http://debian.org/> .''`. | Get my public key via finger mlang@db.debian.org : :' : | 1024D/7FC1A0854909BCCDBE6C102DDFFC022A6B113E44 `. `' `- <URL:http://delysid.org/> <URL:http://www.staff.tugraz.at/mlang/>
