I wonder what impact the new FCC notice of proposed rule making will
have for accessibility in communications apps. Will any email or chat
app have to be accessibly implemented on at least one platform? So if

A simple solution is this and it's something easy to manage.
Where an application developer creates an application from scratch as an
example and intends to write for multiple OS architectures, Windows, Mac,
Linux, etc,

Is there such a cross-platform compiler system that supports
accessibility? Most Mac developers I know of use XCode and so I'm not
sure how this could be used with a common codebase. I know one developer
who was using MonoTouch to make iOS and android apps and the iOS
versions were pretty much
not to my knowledge.
to be completely honest, my view on this is for a developer to design the
program elements in such a way they can be shifted to both mac and windows but
using each OS independent programming languages and their own compilers. thus
allowing each OS to create accessibility
FYI: Skype does have blind VoiceOver beta testers, I was officially
added as one of them a few days ago, I am plugged into system, betas,

No, I cannot and will not comment on future betas, things that may be
fixed, broken, etc. However, please post any/all issues you've

Hello Kevin.
Thank you for sharing your post with us.
The first thing I'd like to see on the Skype accessibility front for IOS and
OS10 is the consistency of layout so that both interfaces look the same in
terms of using Boice Over.
Images get replaced with buttons when using Skype on the IOS
Does the keyboard shortcut for switching conversations in 5.x
Option+Cmd+Left/Right help? Is this an acceptable and workable
solution to the issue with switching among various chats quickly? It's
a lot faster and more effective than going to sources, scrolling, and
back to HTML content.
