Well said.

Ricardo, you are absolutely right about standing up and saying what needs
saying in spite of any perceived futility. Drop Box needs to hear us all. Of
I agree with this 100 %.

What a strange post.
I have to say the same thing I did then. So what? Just because they choose to
ignore you, doesn't mean you should just give up. I will draw a parallel but
off course this was a much bigger deal. When African Americans marched and
petitioned for civil rights, I'm sure ma
I pointed the dropbox devs to my youtube vid but they didn't even seem to look
at it. at least I don't think so based on there response. so maybe the one who
got the more detailed response can point them to what I did to demonstrate and
see if that helps them at all as it is a screenshot vid.

I already did a youtube vid. just go to my youtube link in my sig and click
the dropbox ink. itis short but it should prove a point.

There is currently no "bar" that is well defined about what it means

Excellent idea! Anyone can wine and complain about a product or write a

Hi all!
As someone else said it is not Apples place to make dev's add accessibility!
But [ and I do not know how this would work] could the apps star rating be
made, so it would only get 5 stars if it is accessible!
Somehow only people who use accessibility could put a rating that no one else
can
yes but when an ap WAS accessible and no longer is that should be criminal

Er, apologies for the reference to the iTunes store. I forgot which
list I was writing to.
My point stands though. It is not realistic to assume that every Mac
application should be voiceover friendly before the developer can make
money from it.

Are you suggesting that every developer should make sure that every
app is VO accessible before the app store carries it? That wuld be
tantamount to saying that every app must be availble in, insert
obscure written language here, before it could be sold in the iTunes
store.
So, I say to pick your

Hi.
Ok I wrote to dropbox yesterday, and I got an answer back, where they asked me
if I could give them more details.
I think that, if you write a mail to them, and describes the problems, I think
they will try to solve it, that's how I understand it. we need to be positive,

Hi all!
You bring up a good point Ray!
Does anyone know if the paid version is accessible because if it is then they
want you to buy the full version!
If it is not It's back to being vo Mac users are not still big enough group to
