Good afternoon Jonathan,

Thanks for the update. Can you please post to the fluid-work list when the Decapod pages are updated on the Wiki? This project is of particular interest to me as it is a tool that can aid in the task of making access to information equitable for a broad range of persons with disabilities.

Most importantly I hope that Decapod will be perceivable, understandable and operable to a broad range of individuals with disabilities, so that they can digitize their own materials, in situations where such effort is unfortunately necessary.

Thanks for the great work,
Everett

Hi Everett.

Thanks for dropping us a line.

Unfortunately Decapod has not been maintaining a project news site / page as we should. I hope to put these updates on the Wiki and the project website shortly.

Most of our work has been developing our "0.5y" deliverable, which demonstrates the fundamentals of what Decapod is going to accomplish: capture images from a camera, dewarp the image, output to a PDF. Boyan has been busy working on this end and we're getting close to a first release.

On the design end, we're iterating on our latest "v9" designs and recently made a significant change in the user's workflow by no longer seperating Remastering from the Capture work processes. As a result a few of the v9 wireframes will need to change. I will be working on that over the next few days.

We also have plans to do rounds of user testing to get feedback on elements of the UI.

I do have some questions about accessibility, but I think that deserves a separate email thread.

I hope that gives you an idea of what we've been up to. Do you have anything more specific in mind?

Thanks!

- Jonathan.

Good morning,

I'm wondering if someone can point me to a wiki page or other document that can give me an idea of the progress and status of the Decapod project. This project really interests me, and I am hoping that the final product will be perceivable, understandable and operable by individuals with visual or other print impairments.

Thanks in advance,
Everett
