Hi skype users. a question. a friend of mine has had trouble her skype won’t let her alt page up and alt page down to answer calls. now that microsoft has said demand we use their product and accessibility for blind be damned by ending support for GW connect’s primary skype kit and now that I have uninstalled it, do any on list know if microsoft will offer any tutorials or have proposed any changes in skype to honor their commitment to accessible since for us each time skype is updated it is more and more complicated? so questions. one How do I answer voicemails, send voice mails or call someone not on my contacts list like the custom contact feature GW connect had? how do I reauthorize invited contacts and how to search more eaisly now that we are forced to use a product that is more and more difficult to use by the blind each day. my friend’s not on this list. I think I will propose a resolution to our state convention critical of microsoft’s seemingly less concern for accessibility and forced us of an increasingly less accessible product. if we don’t do something here the blind will fall further and further behind in the digital devide.
