Cool. Lilly, I'd like to add that Debian has an accessibility centric
listserv, too, in case you were not already aware. It's the
Debian-Accessibility list that is found at:
https://lists.debian.org/debian-accessibility/
Some of their newest conversations are here:
https://lists.debian.org/debian-accessibility/2017/06/threads.html
Access related to screenreaders is a very regular topic over there.
They occasionally also have shoutouts looking for testers of pending
upgrades.
The beauty of Debian's accessibility efforts is that they don't stop
here. Those efforts perpetuate way on out into wherever other
operating systems, especially our extended family of derivatives,
garner ideas from the work of Debian's Developers.
Best wishes!
Cindy :)
