In my view, user interface APIs need to be designed in such a way that writing inaccessible applications is harder than writing accessible ones. Obviously, having the access support (for Gnome, this means ATK/AT-SPI) built into UI libraries helps in this respect. I know there have been moves afoot in the free and open-source software community to move toward higher-level programming languages and libraries for application development; maybe this will provide an opportunity to design so as to encourage good practices from the beginning. _______________________________________________ gnome-accessibility-list mailing list gnome-accessibility-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnome-accessibility-list
