Hello Nektarios, Are you the same Nektarios who was visiting Larry Campbell in the States at the same time I was? If you are, do you remember our bold postulations that Graphical User Interfaces would indeed be accessible to blind people soon? If you are the same person, that dates you as much as it does me! :)
Now to your question: Have you considered the Talking Communities software? While their Mac client isn't as far along as their Windows client, it works well enough, and their software is indeed accessible. Recently, the European Blind Union purchased a Talking Communities server of our own so that we could cut down on our long-term expenses and increase our level of real time communication amongst members and commissions. We are still in the process of getting things set up the way we like them, but we are encouraged that we now have (1) something that is accessible and (2) a relationship with a company that is eager to work with us and accommodate our accessibility needs. Our Technology Commission has tested and used the server for several meetings now, and we are very satisfied. By the way, since you own a Mac, it'd be great if you would be willing to consider working with Mac users on improving accessibility on the Mac side of things. Accessibility can only improve if Talking Communities gets constructive feedback.
