Oct 6, 2006

  • Edgy Eft Access status - Quick roundup of new features, testing and bug squashing!
  • Brief introductions - We have many new team members since our last meeting so we should all get properly introduced!

  • Helping the community: Since Ubuntu's increased accessibility, there are now many more questions, on many of the linux accessibility related lists for blind/vision impaired users of various programs. I feel we need to see how we can properly help people to get the right answers, and prevent misconceptions from spreading etc, in regards to things such as the installer, using administration tools, etc. I think this is where access.ubuntu.com could come more fully into play. (LukeYelavich)

  • Next meeting - set a time for the next meeting, at which we will discuss cool new access features

Mar 1, 2006

  1. The accessibility profiles have been implemented. We need to finalize the various settings for the profiles, such as magnification window placement, the amount of magnification, speech rate, etc.
  2. Gok remedies - Gok brings up a warning about not being able to do pointer grabs without a modified X config. Determine whether anybody has found a way to get rid of it, or alternatively, look at how easy or difficult this may be to implement properly.
  3. Get the necessary packages onto the live CD ASAP. Discuss further what was brought up on the list as well as the gnome lists about flite compared to festival and disk space, as the devs of the gnome-speech speech-dispatcher driver seem to be discouraging its mainstream use at this time.

  4. The TODO wiki page located at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/Accessibility/Team/TODO needs cleaning up and resorting, as it hasn't been updated since December, and a lot has happened between now and then.

  5. Making the Ubuntu CD's Accessible - We need a "dimple" or some other braille like marking on at least one of the Ubuntu CD's so that people know which one they have. [cjs on behalf of manoeuvre.org]

Feb 15, 2006.

  1. Live CD boot parameters. See: Accessibility/LiveCDsettings

Jason Grieves I may not be attending...here are some updates/things I am still working on

  • Gnome-mag 0.12.2 - new low vision support. Good for my group!
  • gnome-mag bugs with Xfixes and Damage?
  • Accessibility Documentation in Ubuntu Help?

Jason Grieves

  1. Low Vision/Gnome-mag update
  2. Luke, Status of new gnome-mag packages?
  3. Full Screen Magnification Review. I need more testers!

    Note: Link to SandBox preview of gnome-mag review removed by PhilWyett - 2008/06/13 and replaced with link to final/current version of the review. https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Accessibility/Reviews/gnome-mag

  4. Firefox Magnification improving!

https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=320357 https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=317213

  1. Accessibility Documentation
  2. Wikified, but improvements needed! Assigning to document
  3. Navigation on Wiki
  4. Awesome job on the Wiki, but there are some places were "Navigation" is at the bottom. Am I the only one missing these when trying to find locations? Can we throw them at top also, or would that clutter things?

Henrik Nilsen Omma

  1. Test Testing

    • Please have a look at Accessibility/Testing and give feedback on the general concept and feel free to add more detail

    • If this seems OK to most people, I will post a request for testing volunteers on some mailing lists and forums
  2. Ubuntu Express update

Dec 7th, 2005

  1. Designing use cases testing procedures

  2. Possible documentation project: Ubuntufying the Abilitynet skill-sheets?

    • LukeYelavich has some documentation from Jason Grieves he would like to put forward for examination as some further material for accessibility documentation.

  3. Bounty Ideas -- we should put some ideas forward and advertise them
    • High visibility theme
    • X-10 support

    • Improved software speech synthesis support. See: SpeechSynthesisProposal

    • Package Orca -- this is the future of screen reading right? Does it run at all ATM?

  4. Setting up access.ubuntu.com
    • Do we want/need this?
    • Some work has been done on accessibility themes
  5. Do we want to participate in the Massachusetts ODF campaign?
    • Producing and distributing the AT-by-default derivative

  6. New wiki structure (DanielHolbach)

    • I added some AccessibilityTeam/* pages, which are linked from AccessibilityTeam.

    • I think we need more centralized resources to get us as a team more focused on goals.
