Accessibility Update Request.

[jnoseworthy]

Hello Folks:

It would be awesomenessCoolness if you would designate a future update to resolve problems that Blind Folks who are computer Screenreader users are having with Reaper.

We could probably submit a list documenting some of the issues that we need to be addressed. This is extremely important to us and, I hope, to you as well.

Thanks all over the place.

Would be so awesome

I actually had another suggestion regarding the forums
There is already a MailingList for people who are blind and using REAPER and reaaccess, and there are many discussions going on there, it'd be so cool if we could get a place in the forum so instead of using the MailingList, everybody would just post in the forums.
There are many advantages, one among them is that we would have our conversations archived in REAPER forums, and it's easier to access, than going through the MailingList archives and all that mess.

Big +1 here to the idea of an accessibility sub-forum. I'm politely skeptical that it'll be as widely adopted as the mailing list that blind users currently post to (they're tech support partying like it's 1999 baby), but it would be great to have a place that groups accessibility related posts together, and would likely make the process of improving accessibility a bit more productive whenever/if ever there's going to be movement on that front. I don't log in here much currently, but definitely would do if there was a specific place I could go to keep up with any accessibility developments and swap usage tips with other people who use Reaper the same way.

How about it Cockos folks? Good idea?

I'll be so excited if this happens.
Even now and then, New beginners in the MailingList appear and ask about the things that are already discussed multiple times, we can Have that written in a sticky thread as well.
The VST plugins that appear to be accessible could be listed in the sticky topics too.
I'd be excited if this happens.
