Doug,

it may be worth contacting Charles Chen: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
developer of Fire Vox.

I believe I already raised the issue, perhaps two years ago... I just  
dont remember.

maybe you can make the issue simpler to resolve?

best wishes

Jonathan Chetwynd

Hi-

While SVG is designed with accessibility in mind, the accessibility User
Agents do not seem to be taking advantage of this.

For example, JAWS does not currently seem to have any support for SVG.
I have just spoken to Freedom Scientific (the makers of JAWS) on the
phone, and sent them an email explaining how SVG should be used by JAWS,
with an example file.

It should be very easy for them to add such support. I encourage
interested parties to write them and let them know that you want support
for SVG.

I am also interested in contacting other accessibility UAs that should
support SVG. Please let me know about any others, so I can encourage
them in the same way.

Finally, I am eager to take into account any feedback on how the SVG
spec could be made more accessible by these implementors or authors with
specific advice. I am also available to discuss and explain the
accessibility features we already have.

Regards-
-Doug
