[AI] support for the campaign
Dear Harish and All, please get people to sign on the declaration form which is available on www.righttoread.in. For the event in Delhi, requesting everyone to turn up with family and friends. If anyone has contacts in schools and universities, please try to get as many persons from the colleges to come, preferably in hundreds. I have no contact with students unions, nss and individuals and organisations who can mobilise support. Please remember- the success of our event depends largely upon the number of people who turn up to support the campaign- the capacity of Lal chowk is 1000 persons and it is open air so there won't be any problem to accomodate any number of persons. There may not be much of an impact even if we try to get important persons to come and get media coverage if there are very few people present there. Also if you all can write to me individually and let me know how many people you will be coming with, it would be most helpful. We have very little time and opportunity- the bill gets presented in parliament in Feb, so please do help. Thank you, Nirmita Nirmita Narasimhan (Programme Manager) Centre for Internet and Society No. D2, 3rd Floor, Shariff Chambers 14, Cunningham Road, Bangalore - 560 052 P: + 80 40926283 To unsubscribe send a message to accessindia-requ...@accessindia.org.in with the subject unsubscribe.

[AI] Urgent help required from all Delhi Members!
Dear Friends, Do you know how many books are published each year? How many are available in accessible formats? How many people in India cannot read print? What does our law say on the subject? What does our Government say? What are we doing about it? Industry statistics reveal that there are about 80,000-100,000 books published each year in India. Out of these, barely 800 books may be available in accessible formats for persons who cannot read print. India has approximately 70 million or more people who cannot read print because they are blind, have dyslexia or have cerebral palsy or some other form of physical, cognitive or sensory disability which prevents them from holding or turning the pages of a book. Our Copyright Act does not have any provision which permits books to be converted in to formats which they can read. So organisations have been converting books only after getting permission or on their own out of a need to sustain the intellectual needs of the community for pursuing education. However, even these efforts have resulted in very few accessible books being in circulation. We have been petitioning the Government for the past three years to change the law and make reading, which is a fundamental right for Indian citizens, possible for us. We have submitted many petitions, research documents, shown best practices, analysed possible provisions which would benefit both us and the industry, met them personally several times and spoken in the media about this. In November a group of us met the Minister of HRD Mr. Kapil Sibal and submitted a detailed representation yet again and explained the problem for the Nth time. He seemed most positive and assured us that our problem would be adequately addressed in the present Copyright amendment Bill which is to be tabled before the Parliament in the budget session in February 2010. After that, in the last week of December 2009, the Ministry of HRD comes out with a press release (http://pib.nic.in/release/release.asp?relid=56443&kwd= ) which talks very briefly about the amendment which has been proposed with regard to the "physically challenged". This press release is a cause of great concern and distress for us. The press release essentially states that conversion would be possible for physically challenged persons only in specialised formats without permission, for all other formats, we need to go to the Copyright Board for permission, which will be granted at the discretion of the Board and on such terms as they will specify. This essentially means that conversion is possible only into Braille or sign language. This is problematic because it leaves out all the millions of persons who are disabled and cannot read print or know Braille. What about those with dyslexia, cerebral palsy or those whose upper body is paralysed and all those who do not know Braille? Are not such persons also citizens of India? Should they not also have the Right to Read? In this information Age, where all accessible formats can be produced through a master source electronic file and where even Braille can be read through refreshable Braille displays, for the Government to now come out with an amendment which would have been useful twenty years ago seems ironic. For how many of those 80,000-100,000 books can each of us keep asking for permission because we want an electronic file? And when we can use a mainstream electronic format like MSWord or PDF etc, why does the Government want to make things difficult for us again by asking us to convert into a specialised format? And for how long will we have to wait for permission? How will it be possible for us to keep making requests to the Copyright Board whenever we want to read a book? Clearly, this has gone beyond all logical reasoning. We must be united and act together to ensure that ALL persons with disabilities can exercise their Right to Read. The nationwide Right to Read campaign was launched in September last year and events were organised in Chennai and Calcutta. The next campaign is being organised in Delhi on 30th January, 2010. The Venue: Lal Chowk, Pragati Maidan Time: 02:00pm-05:00 pm Date: 30th Jan 30th Jan is also the day when the International World Book fair begins in the same venue. What better time and venue can we have for us to show that while publishers from around the world are showcasing their publications, we, the Disability Community, still have no Books to read? Appeal: We need very strong support from the Disability community to come to the R2R campaign and make it a success. Lal Chowk has a seating capacity of 1000 people and we need all of you to come in large numbers and participate. We will also try to organise transportation if the number of participants is large from any organisation. I request you to please send your confirmation to me at the earliest. Best wishes, Nirmit
[AI] R2R in India- third phase
Dear All, the R2R campaign in India is now in its third phase of operation. Following the first campaign in Chennai on 26th Sept and the second in Calcutta on 7th Nov, the R2R in Mumbai is taking on a new flavour. Instead of organising an event like the previous two, this one is focusing on getting signatures of hundreds of authors and publishers on a Declaration on the Right to Read. The campaign is gathering momentum as a build up to the R2R in the capital to be held on the first day of the world book fair at the same venue. The signature campaign is being spear headed by Xaviers Resource Centre for the Visually Challenged (XRCVC), which is a member organisation of the DFI. To know more about the campaign you may link to http://www.xrcvc.org/copyright.php#"righttoread"campaign . This link will also lead on to a request letter for authors and publishers which can be downloaded as a declaration form which needs to be filled up and signed. We request all of you to please pass on this to as many authors and publishers as you know to increase the success of the campaign. The letter has to be signed and returned in hard copy or scanned and sent to the XRCVC address which is there in the letter. The R2R in New Delhi will be held in the afternoon of 30th Jan at Pragati Maidan (venue of the book fair). More details to follow later.

[AI] Fw: [tvi-discuss] Comments on inadequacy of voluntary measures to ensure equal access to copyrighted works for persons with reading disabilities
Hello All, For your information. Cheers, Nirmita - Original Message - From: "James Love" To: "tvi" Sent: Thursday, October 08, 2009 7:06 PM Subject: [tvi-discuss] Comments on inadequacy of voluntary measures to ensure equal access to copyrighted works for persons with reading disabilities One of the main arguments by publishers against a WIPO treaty for reading disabilities is that voluntary solutions are sufficient, and you do not have to create a legal right to create and distribute works in accessible formats. Malini Aisola has created a web page that reports some of the comments that various experts have made on this topic. We hope to expand her web page with additional quotes, and appreciate very much pointers to such quotes. Also, if people on this list would give us something we could use, that would be great too. The current version of the web page is here, and includes quotes from 9 experts and disabilities groups: http://keionline.org/node/652 -- James Love, Director, Knowledge Ecology International http://www.keionline.org | mailto:james.love at keionline.org Wk: +1.202.332.2670 | US Mobile +1.202.361.3040 | Geneva Mobile +41.76.413.6584 ___ tvi-discuss mailing list tvi-disc...@lists.keionline.org http://lists.keionline.org/mailman/listinfo/tvi-discuss_lists.keionline.org To unsubscribe send a message to accessindia-requ...@accessindia.org.in with the subject unsubscribe.

[AI] R2R campaign
Dear Friends, I am happy to report that the R2R campaign in Chennai was well attended and well publicised. Almost 800 persons both vvi and non vi turned up from colleges around the city. We had reporters from TOI, The Hindu and the Deccan Chronicle cover the event. The NDTV Hindu- local Chennai channel will telecast this in the news. They are also having an interview of us in their prime time slot from 20:00-21:00 tonight, so all those who live in Chennai could watch this on TV. Our Chief Guest was mr.Shreekumar Verma, the great grandson of Raja Ravi Verma and a well known writer and dramaturtist- he immediately offered all his writing to be converted into accessible formats and has voluntered to write about this issue. There was a signature campaign which was started- Loyola College and the entire NSS team of Chennai have offered to try and get 1 lakh signatures on this- lets keep fingers crossed. After the Inauguration , we had a panel discussion where Prof Shivaraman,, advocate Mr.Vijay Kumar and Mr.Dipendra Manocha participated. There was a brief Q&A session with the audience, followed by a small orchestra programme and the programme concluded with lunch. I would like to thank all of you in Chennai who attended the programme and made this possible. Above all I would like to thank Loyola College without whose initiatives and commitment this event would not have been possible. I look forward to making the next series of events more successful with inputs from all. The web site for the campaign is righttoread.in. Request all to go there and give feed back, comments etc. There is a declaration form which we are requesting persons to sign. The complete report of this event shall be ready next and uploaded to the CIS web site. I shall send the link as soon as that is done.

Hello Friends, Today is our first R2R campaign event in Loyala College, Chennai. It begins at 09:00 and will conclude at 13:00hrs. About 1000 participants are coming from 100 colleges and organisations around Chennai and a lot of newspapers and a couple of TV channels too. I am off now- but I will write in detail about this and you can also read about this on the CIS blog soon and hopefully from newspaper and TV coverage. Wish us luck.

[AI] Right To Read Campaign in India
Dear Friends, the Daisy Forum of India, CIS and Inclusive Planet are initiating a nationwide Right to Read (R2R) campaign in India. The campaign will start in Chennai at Loyala college on 26th September and will cover the four metros over October. This campaign has been officially recognised by the WBU as a part of the global R2R campaign. We are writing to all organisations to come and lend their name and support to this campaign. We require you all to take part and spread the word. We believe that the amendments proposed a couple of years ago to the Copyright Act may again be under discussion in the ministry and so it may be a good time to put our requirements forward. Further, the WBU Treaty for the Blind is also coming up for discussion again at the next WIPO meeting to be held in December. It has currently got support of only three Latin American countries- considering that we house almost the largest percentage of blind and other disabled persons, it would be most beneficial for us if the Treaty comes through and we have been urging the Indian Government to support the Treaty as well. The Treaty seeks to harmonise exceptions and limitations to Copyright across all countries so that there can be an unimpeded exchange of books in accessible formats across borders. I suggest that all of you read the Treaty to get a better understanding of the issue involved. The Treaty also says that accessible books should be at prices which can be reasonably afforded by persons with print impairments, given their capacity of earning, which may be at the same price, or even lesser than the market price. Anyway, the long and short of it is that this treaty is good for us and the country and we want it to come through- so hence this awareness campaign. We plan to have half a day events where we will have open discussions and debates on this issue, get some famous persons to endorse this campaign, raise media interest and publicity and get public support. I'll send more details about this as and when they are finalised. I require help in: 1. getting all of you in the cities where this is happening to come and participate in large numbers 2. Suggest any famous personalities whom you may have access to for endorsing this campaign 3. help with organising this in different locations in different cities- if your colleges and universities will give us space- that is the best place to have these 4. Give your ideas for this campaign. Please write to me personally at nirm...@cis-india.org, or call me at my office number 080 40926283 after friday. I am travelling at the moment. Looking forward to your response, support and a great campaign together. Cheers, Nirmita PS We have registered righttoread.in as the campaign website- it should hopefully be up by the end of the week. Will of course keep you informed.

[AI] Bookbole announcement!
Dear Friends, As many of you are aware, The Centre for Internet and Society (CIS) is extremely dedicated to the cause of securing access to knowledge for the print disabled in India. While we took our first baby steps in this area only a year ago, we have nevertheless, with your support, managed to make a significant difference in terms of raising awareness, conducting capacity building trainings and working towards policy and practical change for securing the right of persons with disabilities to access electronic information. Our vision is that persons with print impairments should have access to reading materials in accessible formats at the same time and no extra cost as their sighted counterparts. To achieve this, we have set up a library of books with multiple formats which can be accessed by persons using screen readers. However, this is just a small beginning and I count on each one of you to treat this as your own personal library and undertake the task of filling it with all the books and e content at hand, and help us make this become one of the world's richest and most actively used libraries. To enable you to easily upload books, we have set up a dedicated file server to support the library which will allow us to upload and download books in a simple and seamless fashion. Our library can be accessed through Bookbole, a website which has been designed specifically for use with screen readers. Bookbole provides an enhanced functionality of allowing users to find, share, and manage personal libraries and is at the same time very easy to navigate. This website has been developed by Inclusive Planet, a social venture involved in creating web based products and services for the differently-abled. So please start uploading books and building our Library collection today! Three simple steps to upload books onto the library- Step 1: Login Log on to www.bookbole.com , by using your email id and creating a password Step 2: Install the Bookbole Bookloader The Bookbole Bookloader can be downloaded and installed from the Navigation section of the website. Step 3: Upload & Publish You can upload your entire collection of books by using the The Bookbole Bookloader which allows you to upload multiple files and folders. Once the books get uploaded, go to the personal library section, which is under the Navigation section of the site. The uploaded books will reflect in the private books section of your personal library. To share it with the entire community, you will need to click on publish so that your books will now be available for searches on the site! If you are having any trouble with navigation or using any of the features provided on the site, or if you have ideas to further improve Bookbole, please write to cont...@bookbole.com However, while this is also just the beginning for all of us, we want to ensure that there are at least a few books of interest for everyone who uses this site. So please do upload books in your collection which you value very much, and have the satisfaction of knowing that you gave this to others to read, to experience and to cherish as you yourself do. Let that special book be special to someone else too- someone to whom you reached out through your contribution to the library. Let us join hands and connect the world by sharing knowledge!

[AI] bangalore meetRe: AccessIndia Digest, Vol 37, Issue 46
L" Subject: [AI] Regarding Bangalore AI meeting To: Message-ID: Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Folks: The Bangalore off-line AI meeting, which took place today at the CIS (Centre for Internet and Society) campus, was a resounding success. More than 20 AI members from different parts of the country were present to listen to four presentations made by IVolunteers, 3i Infotec, Area Pal and Inclusive Planet. All the presenters spoke about their services/products/organisations, but it proved to be useful for those present. For instance, the I Volunteer presentation opened the way for many to either request for volunteer help (as disability services is one of 12 areas for which the organisation helped with volunteers). Obviously, those present were interested in reading/scanning books and other related services. Interestingly, the idea of digital signatures, which the 3i Infotec representative dealt with, prompted discussion on using digital signatures as a means of certifying disabled persons who wanted to buy railway tickets online. In fact, Sanjeev, the representative, was even positive that it can be done. Kavi Raj, who is from Area Pal, explained how their online platform linked people in the same neighbourhood/campus and helped them exchange news and information relevant to them. Rounding up the interesting evening was Sachin from Inclusive Planet, who spoke about readable, an accessible online space where (V I) folks can upload/download books and share the books they have. He said the site already contains about 15000 ebooks and asked for contribution. Integral Planet, which looks at services from the disability perspective, is poised to introduce spaces for restaurant/public place ratings (on the basis of their accessibility) and matrimonial services for the disabled where the emphasis will be on their abilities. Overall, the evening was made more funny and interesting by our hostess Nirmita Narasimhan (on behalf of CIS), who introduced her organisation to the audience and also took the job of making us all hear our voices for the first time (by letting us introduce ourselves). Thanks to Nirmita and Geetha's efforts and hard work, the event is a success.

[AI] Re Prof Shyam
Dear Prof Shyam, you are welcome to attend the access India meeting. The venue is the conference room of Centre for Internet and Society, which is on the third floor (if you come by lift) of the Wockhardt Hospital on Cunningham Road. This is a very famous landmark and any auto guy should get you here if you just tell him. It should take you about half an hour to get here if there is no traffic I think. Do please feel free to mail/call one of us once you get here and if you need help. Maybe you could come with someone else who is coming from that side.

The 500-pound gizmo, which will be launched this summer, clips on to the dog's harness and vibrates on the left or right side to tell the handler which direction to go in. The blind user announces their destination into a sat nav microphone. The vibrating receiver then indicates how to "steer" the dog. Product design student Jason Perkins developed Peepo after working with the Cardiff Institute for the Blind for a year, reports The Sun. Jason, 34, who studies at the University of Wales Institute in Cardiff, said: "It gives blind people complete freedom. They can use it to navigate safely to new places. "I wanted to create something that would have a life-changing effect but would also draw on the unique skills of the guide dog." Blind Jane McCann, 39, from Cardiff, who tested Peepo, said: "I have small children, so it's difficult to concentrate on the kids and directions at the same time. This was easy to use and life-enhancing." http://www.dnaindia.com/report.asp?newsid=1248768 Vikas Kapoor, MSN Id:dl_vi...@hotmail.com, Yahoo&Skype Id: dl_vikas, Mobile: (+91) 9891098137. -- Message: 2 Date: Sat, 18 Apr 2009 21:50:37 +0530 From: "Hozefa Zoher Tambawala" Subject: [AI] Help required To: Message-ID: <49e9fdd8.06876e0a.3058.b...@mx.google.com> Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Hello friends, Can anybody tell me what is the use of address book?

In short, it is all about the operating system. And contrary to common sense, the newer the operating system the longer it can take. But you can do something about it. Here are tips to get your tortoiselike boot time to hop like a bunny. Why can't a computer be more like a television? When you push the power button on a TV, it just turns on. Computers, on the other hand, boot - as in, they take so long to get started that you want to stick your boot into them. You would think that the march of technological progress would have reduced boot times over the years, but newer operating systems can take longer - Microsoft Vista actually tends to boot more slowly than its predecessor, Windows XP. (Microsoft claims its next-generation operating system, Windows 7, should provide drastic improvements in boot time.) Additionally, boot times increase with a computer's age. As you use your PC and more programs and devices are installed,
[AI] on line portal for PWDs
Dear Mukesh, a colleague of mine who is an intellectual property lawyer in Chennai has already been working on this for a year now. Many of us have been helping him with building the e content bit of the web site for visually challenged and gathering all the material wherever we can get it. The content section is called readable and should go live by the end of the month. We have a lot of stuff we are going to put, but since the cataloging and organising bit is taking time, we are going live with whatever we have right now,. Eventually this is to have all the education, entertainment and anything which would be of interest to persons. VI people would have to log in and certify that they are vi and then they would have access to the reading material. We want this to be peer driven and people to upload their materials themselves and create a vibrant culture of sharing. The web site is called "inclusive planet" and it would be great if all those who want could help with the beta testing to see if the site is completely accessible and then of course start using the material and uploading actively.

You can read about this at http://www.cis-india.org/advocacy/open-standards/accessibility In order to take this forward, I was looking at having a survey on a very small level of some twenty Government web sites which would be critical for our use. I was wondering if some of you would volunteer to help me out with this. The sites I had in mind were- National Informatics Centre, Ministry of Social Justice and Empowerment (highly inaccessible), Railways, UGC, some education sites like IIM A, B, IIT Delhi and Kanpur, Jawaharlal Nehru University, Delhi University, some medical sites like AIMS and CMC Vellore, some banking sites like SBI, Syndicate Bank and Punjab National Bank, Income Tax site and maybe the Parliament- Lok and Rajya Sabhas. If you could- A. rate the site on a scale from 1-10 b. mention how accessible it is and give some of the problems encountered in each siteit would be great. I really need this info and would really appreciate your help in this matter. If the volunteers can indicate at the beginning what sites they will like to review, it would save duplication. Thanks in anticipation, Nirmita n Nirmita Narasimhan Centre for Internet and Society No. D2, 3rd Floor, Sheriff Chambers 14, Cunningham Road, Bangalore - 560 052 P: +91 80 4092 6283 M: 098458 68078 To unsubscribe send a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the subject unsubscribe.

[AI] Invitation to national policy on digital access meeting
Appeal for Web Accessibility Dear Friends, The internet has brought with it a fresh breath of life and energy into the lives of disabled persons throughout the world. More than others, it has enabled and liberated them in the most complete sense of the words and succeeded in elevating levels of independence, competence and confidence. Like any other technology however this comes with its bundle of problems. Thankfully for us, a large part of this can be solved by merely setting some minimum standards in place at no extra cost or effort. For any technology to be completely useful, it has to fall into the criteria of - utility, usability, affordability, acceptance and accessibility. Unfortunately, while the internet can solve most of the access to information challenges faced by disabled persons, the hurdles in the form of navigation or comprehension problems pose as severe barriers to placing complete reliance on it as a tool for managing one's work and academic pursuits for visually and print disabled persons. To help better understand the issue, given below are some features which are quite problematic for persons with visual and reading disabilities. They are accompanied by some simple solutions which can be easily incorporated by web page creators right from the very beginning. Web pages often contain images and graphics which cannot be discerned by screen readers- text descriptions and explanations can be provided for these; creation of links to skip to content can provide a huge relief for persons using screen readers from listening to a whole lot of useless or confusing content; there should be key board alternatives for every function which has to be executed with a mouse; links without references such as "click here" or links without any specific destination should be avoided; creators of web pages should not rely upon colours to convey meanings; since screen readers read content as it is in the code, web page creators should ensure that content is read correctly in the page as well as in the code. By adherence to web accessibility standards, these problems can be avoided. A lot of countries in the world like USA, UK, Canada, Australia and many more have enacted legislations to make it mandatory for creators of web pages to follow the minimum standards for web page accessibility adopted by those countries. India has ratified the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities in October 2007. Unfortunately however, no move has been made till date to adopt or make mandatory web accessibility guidelines in our country. Consequently, a lot of government and private web sites are in accessible for persons with disabilities, defeating the very purpose of ICT for development. Considering these factors, we think it is high time that we make a concerted effort towards enabling a more inclusive on line environment for all. Adopting a web accessibility standard does not merely make the web more accessible to disabled persons, it makes navigation and operation easier for everyone. The W3C has come out with a web accessibility standard called the WCAG (Web Content Accessibility Guidelines) which has been adopted by many countries. This makes the tasks of the countries easier in the sense that they have already a ready framework and guidelines available to work with. We solicit your active support and presence in this movement for enabling mandatory adherence to web accessibility standards in India. You are invited to join the google group for a national policy for E Access at http://groups.google.com/group/e-access.We are planning to have a meeting of all interested parties and organizations who are committed to supporting this cause on the date and venue given below. We request you to attend along with other supporters.

Re: [AI] AccessIndia Digest, Vol 29, Issue 28
Hi all, I am getting a new problem with Word as of the past week. Everytime I open and save a document in word, it refuses to save all subsequent changes and converts the file into a temp file and gives the message that the file cannot be saved due to a file permission error and do I want to resave. If I save it again, it does the same thing next time I make the change. Any idea what might be the problem?

[AI] advise on laptop purchaseRe: AccessIndia Digest, Vol 28, Issue 104
Hi everyone, I am Nirmita from Bangalore. My organisation (CIS) is planning to get me a laptop and had asked me for preferences for both comp brand as well as OS. I generally surfed the net and came up with HP DV9734TX WITH INTEL CORE 2 DUO, since HP is one I haven't tried before. But everyone else is getting Lenovo. While I have a choice, I just wanted to get inputs before we actually go ahead and buy the machines. Could anyone who has used either of these machines or knows about them give me some feedback on them? For instance how is the key pad and how are the speakers etc? And could you also suggest a really good brand to go in for? Budget is within 80k. Looking forward to your response, cheers, Nirmita. - Original Message - From: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: Sent: Wednesday, August 27, 2008 1:00 PM Subject: AccessIndia Digest, Vol 28, Issue 104 > Send AccessIndia mailing list submissions to > accessindia@accessindia.org.in > > To subscribe or unsubscribe via the World Wide Web, visit > http://accessindia.org.in/mailman/listinfo/accessindia_accessindia.org.in > > or, via email, send a message with subject or body 'help' to > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > You can reach the person managing the list at > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > When replying, please edit your Subject line so it is more specific > than "Re: Contents of AccessIndia digest..." > > > Today's Topics: > > 1. volunteers required (payal kapoor) > 2.
