This is roughly when I joined. I remember having written the Gnopernicus driver for BrlAPI, which gave us the first screen reader on Linux with native braille support. Since I have good connections to a display reseller near me, I have written support for several display models since. Whenever my favourite reseller gets a new model, they usually let me have it for a few days to implement BRLTTY support for it. That said, the bulk of my contributions were probably talking Dave into impelmenting something particular. I'd like to take this opportunity and publicly thank Dave for the absolutely wonderful work he has been doing since he took maintainance over. As some of you probably don't know, since a significant part of our communication is and was off-list, Dave is not only a maintainer, I consider him a programming mentor of mine. I have learnt quite a lot from him in the past 13 years or so. Thanks! -- CYa, ⡍⠁⠗⠊⠕ _______________________________________________ This message was sent via the BRLTTY mailing list.
