Interesting, thanks for the info. They have some tools that maybe we can
use to test a11y of the help html.

The list is inactive since 2013, visiting the dev list, there are few
messages on it, maybe communication is based elsewhere, there is a
thread aggregating UX StackExchange and Stackoverflow Q/A.
I'll monitor them.
Cheers
Sophie

Sorry to hear that, but we need details on what is broken. If you want
developers to take care of fixing what is broken, they need to know
exactly what is not working as expected. Be aware that volunteers work
on their spare time, so any help on your part will be greatly appreciated.

Kind regards
Sophie

Re: [libreoffice-accessibility] List Subscription Issues

Hi David,

 Hello.
 I have successfully managed to join this list via this Gmail address but I
 had some difficulty with other email accounts.
 The address that I wanted to use for this list was
 david dot goldfield at outlook dot com
 substituting the dot and at for appropriate punctuation. I used the
 address
 accessibility+subscr...@global.libreoffice.org
 with no confirmations. I sent it multiple times with nothing coming back,
 even in Outlook's junk folder. Does anyone know if Outlook is automatically
 filtering out certain messages? I could find no such settings in the
 settings panel but perhaps I was not searching carefully enough.
 Next, I attempted to subscribe with a Verizon account. While I received a
 verification email in ten seconds after sending the subscription request,
 sending an email to the link provided in the message generated a
 confirmation, indicating that my message was invalid.
 Next, I used this Gmail account and the subscription went through without
 a hitch. I admit this isn't a LibreOffice issue but I'm wondering if anyone
 has any theories on why some of these accounts were not cooperating. My
 email client for all of these accounts is Thunderbird although I did try to
 subscribe via the Outlook.com Web site, with no confirmation. Anyway, at
 least I've found an account which will allow me to join this list and I'm
 glad to be able to participate more easily at home.


There is some known issues with some providers. I don't remember of
outlook, but they changed over time. Thanks for your feedback and happy
that you were able to subscribe with gmail.

Cheers
Sophie

Hi Tom, all,
Le 14/12/2014 22:53, Tom Davies a écrit :
 Hi :)
 L10n lists are currently having a massive argument/discussion (discussion
 is more accurate tbh) right now about the disruptive effect of minor
 changes.

The problem is minor changes, like capital letters in menu entries, that
concerns only en_US version but because this version is the source for
all the localization, this is also visible in localized versions where
it could be considered as wasted time for localizers.
 
 I'm not sure but i suspect that getting such a UI change within the next
 couple of days might play out ok and catch the translators before they have
 put too much time into too many strings and then finding they need to
 repeat the work.
 
 If it's not likely to be just a couple of days then it'd probably be better
 for them if this sort of change didn't happen for a few months - or
 longer.  There might be a chance of them automating something like this but
 it'd take ages to set something up and they haven't agreed on getting the
 automation bit sorted.

Shortcuts can't be automated as they are localized (Ctrl and Shift). And
the problem with automation is that we need somebody to write the
scripts ;) The same for accelerators, where we need to adapt them to
translated words.
Anyway we will have a discussion about it with developers and UX team,
once we are out of the 4.4.0 rushes.
Cheers
Sophie

Hi Jonathan,

Thanks a lot for your proposal. I'm sending your mail to the developers
list so we are sure they are aware of it.

Kind regards

 Hello list,
 
 My name is Jonathan Nadeau and I'm the executive director of the
 Accessible Computing Foundation located here

 I'm looking to fund some developers to fix some accessibility bugs with
 Libreoffice and the Orca screen reader. I was hoping either someone on
 the list would be interested in fixing some bugs or that the list might
 know of some people that would like to earn some money to fix some bugs.
 Please let me know if this is not the right place to look for help or if
 there are any other suggestions. Thanks for your time and help.

Re: [libreoffice-accessibility] timing, Paralympics

Hi Tom,

Hi :) I think right now is an excellent time to push any
Accessibility Agendas to a wide variety of lists.  Sadly people on
most lists ignore me or disagree with anything i say sometimes purely
because it's me that's saying it.


First, paralympics unfortunately won't have any influence on our 
resources. I hope that you have enough confidence in us to trust that if 
we don't look at something right when we are aware of it, it's not 
because of lack of interest. We try to manage our resources for the best 
for all our users, but unfortunately we are also quite short here.


Second, we don't ignore or disagree with what you said because of you, 
it's not personal, but sometimes you give your opinion on something
you have no idea about. Because most of us are reading a lot of lists, 
are doing a lot in the project, we just ignore what you said (i.e 
because it's not a real answer) or sometimes we may over react because 
we have lost some precious time reading one of your mail and it didn't 
bring any added value for us. We are not right, you are not wrong, we 
both (you and us) need to think before replying. Your reply will be 
read, but this time may be taken from others in the community who may be 
in more needs (and I hope that my English is enough to explain that it's 
not against you at all.)

So, can other people push any of the ideas of current (or past)
threads to any of the other lists?  Is anyone here on the BoD?  I've
been told that the discuss@ list is a good place to reach the BoD
but i tend to find Marketing is reaches quite a lot of them.

The board has nothing to do here. The board is here to manage the 
foundation (administration, expenses, etc...) and eventually conflicts 
that may appear in the community. The request from Alex should be 
directed to the QA list because he his willing to bring some attention 
on a special area of the product, however this area belongs to the QA 
subproject, and may be he should be sent to the wiki for more 
information on how to fill a bug.


Kind regards
Sophie
