Hi all,

I would also add my congratulations, and express my gratitude, to
the edbrowse development team.  I have been an edbrowse, archlinux,
and command line addict for many years, and have welcomed each advance
in functionality.  But I have become discouraged recently  because the
moving target we are pursuing seems to be pulling away from us.

Last summer I decided to abandon the linux world and emigrate to an
imac system, where there seemed to be a growing community of happy blind
users.  It was not a decision made lightly, and it was one I now regret.
But having resurrected my former favorites I now find, in addition to
the improvements of recent months, an increase in the accessibility
problem areas as well.  For example, Amazon now works extremely well,
but I can no longer access the third party email service I have used
for the past fifteen years, due to a change in their user interface.
I can continue to use it as is, but if it needs a configuration tweak,
or a subscription renewal, I will need sighted assistance.  My experiment
with the proprietary world was an expensive one, and I think I would
rather continue to rely on edbrowse, linux, and the command line, rather
than deal with the PITA presented by the iMac and its GUI prison.

Sorry for the rant.  I'll do what I can to help out here.  Let's not
worry about this year's Christmas shopping.  There's always next year.

Chuck
