Hi Cosimo. Igalia has me working full time on accessibility (maintaining and developing Orca; working on Web Accessibility and associated W3C standards such as ARIA). I blogged about the improvements to Orca's Firefox support and the addition of MathML support here: http://blog.grain-of-salt.com/2015/09/new-in-orca-3-18-firefox-support-rewrite-and-mathml.
Plans for 3.19/3.20 include moving Orca's settings to GSettings (Orca currently rolls its own), adding support for plugins through libpeas, and creating an Orca-controlled caret for WebKitGtk content (i.e. as is done for Gecko already). As for Wayland, I've not looked in a while. But last time I checked, Wayland doesn't appear to be all that broken for Orca. However, it would be great if these bugs could be addressed: * https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=709999 * https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=710012 --joanie On 11/10/2015 09:44 PM, Cosimo Cecchi wrote: > Hi all, > > I'm reaching out to the team on behalf of the Foundation Board to > inquire about the state of the union of accessibility. > Especially with the advent of technologies like Wayland or xdg-app > sandboxing, is there any pending work or roadmap that the team could share? > We also noticed that up until a couple years ago the team was hosting > hackfests regularly, but this seems to have stopped; the Board is of > course available to help if needed. > > Looking forward to your replies! > > Cheers, > Cosimo > > > _______________________________________________ > gnome-accessibility-list mailing list > [email protected] > https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnome-accessibility-list > _______________________________________________ gnome-accessibility-list mailing list [email protected] https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnome-accessibility-list
