If people can put it together, I'm sure bCAB will host it, and if it ends up somewhere else, link to it anyway.
I agree it needs to be a navigable, readable document.

This document needs to be something folks can pull down and put into braille or just read locally.

I have a wiki that would be more than thrilled to host this project. It wen down for some time due to server migration, but I would be willing to put it up and host it.

I'm not the greatest organizer of tasks, but I love to write, and I'd be thrilled to be a part of something like that. I'm also exploring a set-up or mapping of commands based on the multi-touch trackpad gestures that appears to be e xtremely well put together and workable. The vast amount of resources among us is pretty exciting. Carolyn -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.
