Packaging
Package nfbtrans, see http://lists.debian.org/debian-accessibility/2008/05/msg00043.html http://www.nfb.org/nfb/nfbtrans.asp
- Hook braille translators into cups
- Package speechd-up, John Heim volunteered to work on it on 6th Aug 2008
- Add package tags: something like accessible-with::{at-spi,tty-screen-reader}, accessible-with::{braille,speech}, accessible-with::{gnome-orca,brltty,speakup}
- Add a tasksel element. It doesn't seem so simple, we'd need subtasks. Maybe a complete package that asks precise questions.
- Add an accessibility tag to bugs (and thus cc-ed to debian-accessibility)
- Help Mario with the packages he requested help for.
- See how to write a win32-loader frontend to easily configure a11y parameters
Installation
- Tune accessibility support in the liveCD.
- Add brltty/speakup parameters preseed support?
- Create a webpage that generates preseed files according to the hardware selected by the user in a form.
- Another way is putting parameters in the iso itself:
- Add software speech synthesis to debian installer (developped by
SamuelThibault, x86_64 snapshot available on [http://dept-info.labri.fr/~thibault/tmp/espeakup.iso]), that means
- kernel sound drivers (kernel-wedge part commited)
- speech synthesis
- plug to speakup
- Add AT-SPI and Orca/gok to debian installer
Documentation
- Add an accessibility chapter to the new maintainer's guide
- Add accessibility questions in the NM process.
