Dear ReactOS User,
First of all i am very glad to see that people is finding ReactOS useful and
indeed winning some battles to Windows (at least in the Installation).We have
indeed a full unattended setup, so it can get installed just pressing a Key(of
course installing with default values).
When I was introducing ReactOS at Imaginatica Event (with Kjk,Elhoir and
Myrjala) one guy asked us about impaired support. Really ReactOS should support
any app designed for Windows, but of course it is just the theory.As i said,
since that question, i got interested in finding a GPL project for improving
accesibility and i found the project you linked us: NVDA screen reader.
I managed to install it in VirtualBox+AC97 driver included in our Rapps
application. When i tried the first time our sound support was too green(i am
talking about one year ago) and it failed. But in Octuber i recheck and i heard
something!!I heard a ClonClonClin, which means NVDA is ready, but 1 second
later i heard a ClinClinClon,which means an error has happened and the app was
closed.
I was really interested in this comboproject: ReactOS+NVDA, since in Spain we
have a quite interesting organization for impaired people called ONCE,
www.once.es, which pays and supports (finantially)this kind of initiatives.So
maybe we could find a mutual agreement: ReactOS improves its Kernel Sound
support(to support NVDA) and ONCE wins an OpenSource OS with high accesibility.
Alternatively this initiative can be sent to Google Summer of Code (Gsoc),so
janderwald or any other developer interested can win a little of money thanks
to his wonderful work.
After finishing my exams i will retest this App in ROS and (why not?) in
Arwinss too ;)
