Hi, we would need some emacspeak expert here...
My take would be: 1. Parse #+LANGUAGE (and other language related keywords that may eventually exist) to help select the reader's intended target audience. 2. Ignore the rest of the keywords as comments 3. Read/parse the document's body. - Identify links, images (using and 'alt' tag for the alternative text) - Find an adequate way to verbalise tables - Find an adequate way to verbalise org-babel output(s) Doesn't that sound quite like a new exporter?
