Hi,
Redstone (specifically, Redstone 1 (RS1)) is indeed the codename
for Windows
10 Anniversary Update (also known as Version 1607). It includes
an improved
Narrator, Cortana improvements, Edge extensions among other
things. As far
as accessibility is concerned, it includes a bit more responsive
UI
Automation.
See this post from Win10 group:
https://win10.groups.io/g/win10/thread/anniversary_update_updates

,,,20,0,0,0::RecentPostDate%2FSticky,,anniversary+update,20,2,0,1
997384
An item of note is Edge and UAC (User Account Control) dialog
changes:
Microsoft has changed certain technical information about Edge
that'll take
a while for Freedom Scientific (now part of VFO) to implement,
and UAC is
now powered by the same platform that powers universal apps.
JAWS compatibility: I recommend waiting until at least 18 beta
comes out
this fall. Although Insiders who uses JFW report it is working
to some
extent, crashes were observed with Anniversary update preview
builds for
some, and upcoming JFW 18 would have resolved them by now
(unfortunately,
toasts are not announced in Windows 10 despite the fact that help
balloon
notification is checked under verbosity settings for each level).
As far as
universal apps are concerned, it's a mixed bag of accessibility,
and use of
touch cursor is a must.

I'm guessing that'll be the anniversary update that is supposed
to come out
in July.
