Re: Debian accessibility news

Morally speaking, Debian is simply the most accessible distro today. So it is an example in itself. And it is the only distro where in decisionsal processes, accessibility is considered as a matter (eg choice of desktop environment). Ubuntu stopped specific devs in accessibility, Fedora is not real
