A11y status of current factory: openSUSE-GNOME-LiveCD-i686-Build0246-Media.iso
1. Espeak package broken (doesn't output something through pulseaudio). 2. python-louis doesn't install the needed liblouis package 3. No braille in orca 4. orca can't be started because of missing louis stuff 5. no news from bug http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=508611
Is someone working on these problems? Regards Halim
A couple people have started a new channel on irc for accessibility stuff. Its on freenode #opensuse-a11y.
The idea is to start creating a community around a11y so that we can help to improve it on openSUSE. This is a brand new group and as such almost nothing has been done to date :)
Cheers, Stephen
I fear Stephen is being a bit too modest here. The "couple of people" Stephen is referring to is actually himself and I'm supporting him in his initiative to shed more light on the a11y issues that plague openSUSE. I commend him for doing this and look forward to seeing a real team of testers and hackers bringing more focus on a11y and bringing openSUSE back up to the standards of quality with a11y. -- Bryen Yunashko openSUSE Board Member GNOME-A11y Team Member www.bryen.com (Personal Blog) www.planet-a11y.net (Feed aggregator of the Accessibility Community) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org
