The issue with braille seems to be, that the browser needs to be text based, some minutes ago a blind man at Linux audio users list mentioned, that he can't handle flash with his text based browsers, so I guess he's using brltty daemon. This flash thingy was only for playing a song. IMO all those java and flash stuff should be baned, if not really needed. I like to watch youtube, a blind person surely won't watch videos, so it's okay to use more than just HTML for this usage, but apart from that nobody really needs all that folderol. Does anybody watch intro videos on homepages? I always hope that the skip button does his job. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
