I'm all for making the reach more rounded - reach more people * VixAudio appears to have a clearer 'curbcut' effect so make GNOME better for all and may raise perception of the value of a11y work in wider community. * Notify enhancements should attract more mainstream folks who are willing to contribute/mentor so would be a better FOSS community experience for interns. > After some thought, my feeling is this: There > is interesting potential for notify-osd, but at this point in time, it > may be a long time before it becomes a fully upstreamed implementation > and I would rather we focus on existing modules that all distros can > immediately take advantage of and participate in. +1 Steve Lee _______________________________________________ gnome-accessibility-list mailing list gnome-accessibility-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnome-accessibility-list
