Thanks. SPSS now works in JAWS, which satisfies our requirement.

However, some GNU applications have a concern to improve the accessibility and PSPP can benefit from a developer who wants to work at it. PSPP is not required by law, but may be useful and accessible if a volunteer developer working on it.

How would an application like PSPP be compliant or non-compliant with ADA? This website: http://www.interactiveaccessibility.com/services/ada-compliance [http://www.interactiveaccessibility.com/sites/prod/files/logo.png]<http://www.interactiveaccessibility.com/services/ada-compliance> ADA Compliance | Interactive Accessibility<http://www.interactiveaccessibility.com/services/ada-compliance> www.interactiveaccessibility.com Sign up for our newsletter for must-read articles, tips, accessibility news and trends on Section 508, W3C WCAG and ADA compliance. (which surely isn't legal advice) suggests that ADA does not apply to applications like PSPP (or, for that matter, SPSS) because they are not "places of public accommodation." But this is ultimately a question for the lawyers who would defend someone subject to the ADA (e.g., YSU), not for software developers. -Alan On 12/17/2015 10:02 AM, Charles Johnson wrote: I think that's something you have to see the FSF's lawyers, however, if you mean to have accessibility options could resort to other applications depending on the operating system you use. This element can also be considered as an improvement to present as topic in the google summer of code. (high contrast icons, integration with orca, etc).

We are interested in knowing if PSPP is compliant with the standards of the Americans with Disabilities Act. Thanks. R.
