Dear friends Sorry for the cross posting.
As we all know different users have different needs of their operating system. Adjusting the system to meet their requirements may take a lot of effort for certain users. Some users may not be able to configure the system without someone else's assistance. For computers in public spaces (eg. libraries, university computer labs, offices, etc.) it is very important that the computers can quickly adapt to different users' preferences and return to the defaults after they are finished. To try to help with this process I've submitted an idea to the Ubuntu Brainstorm site. If you think this is an interesting idea worth pursuing please *consider voting for it*: http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com/idea/20263/ *What is Web-4-All?* The Adaptive Technology Resource Centre (ATRC) <http://atrc.utoronto.ca/> at the University of Toronto <http://www.utoronto.ca/>developed Web-4-All<http://web4all.atrc.utoronto.ca/html/english/w4a_home_e.html>, a system for easily configuring multi-user public access computer workstations. Web-4-All is basically a file which contains the users accessibility preferences. These preferences can be stored on a smart card or USB flash drive. When the user places this media into a Web-4-All compatible system the system automatically updates to match the accessibility preferences as best it can. When the user pull the card out of the system the computer reverts back to the previous settings. Kind regards, Scott Rippon.
