if the first steve was not the original poster loy was.
steve was only trying to extract the text from that spam mail and from the text
he extracted from the garbage that was in the first message it did not come
from aisquared.
so everyone take a chill pill and stop all this useless flameing when it did
not come from aisquared.
this was probibly sent by a virus that some one on the list got without there
knowlege.

Stephen,
Nice try, but your attempt at sabotage is not only obvious, but useless, since
the wide majority of list members are loyal to their beloved Window-Eyes, and
I'm included.
Please direct your energies elsewhere.
Sincerely,
Rod

Actually, It was binary not text. I ran it through a binary editor, and
had it try to extract any text it could find out of it and it found some
text which said, we really don't care about all the problems with our
screen reader at this point were way over are heads and there may never
even be another Window-eyes version.

Only thing I don't get, is why you would like to put any kind of
teaser out like this. Seems your screen reader needs more attention,
and things need a brush. Then to flush the market with a ton of
teasers, "look what we may bring soon", "Just wait till next year",
and so forth, seems no less than frustrating.
besides, If this was meant to be a non-textual teaser, with only some
kind of iconic or even grapical appearance, why post it to a list that
mainly is trafficated by more or less blind people. Instead of
teasing, all you accomplished was to frustrate. Honestly, that is no
beneficial business approach.
I do second the request, that you please keep this list freed from any
more of such stuff. We have enough complaints about people posting
Off-Topic matters here, let alone that we now have to deal with even
the list-managers themselves putting out mails that are nothing but
useless. You know, that is actually another version of what in the
computer world is named SPAM. Unwanted, non-requested and often
useless emails that float into your mailbox. If the owners of this
list find there is a bit too little traffic on the list, why not put
out something readable, informative, and REAL. Stop all that "Stay
tuned and we may happen to show you what we can do" stuff. Get back to
your customers, when you have things ready, and when you are willing
to share it in a manner that your customers actually know to read.
You, AISquared if any, should know what your screen reader can
perform. You would have absolutely no excuse for throwing out mails
like this, then telling the market "oh, sorry, we did not make it
accessible". Please, abstain from any more of this stuff.
Among others, I did let the synth chatter away, for a minute or two,
trying to figure what it all was about. I immediately recognized it as
html-code, but sometimes you can figure a thing or two, from the few
pieces of text in between the code. This time, a clear waiste of time,
and afterwards, a long line of complaints. And when you come back with
further info on the matter, I really still am scratching my hair off,
to figure what it all was about, or meant to say. Your explanation,
Jeremy, simply gave NO meaning whatsoever. What was the whole message
trying to convey? That you had too much leasure time at work, or is it
possible we are to take this teaser seriously, and hope for an
anouncement in the near future about some exciting news from the
screen reader front? If the latter, why did you not just tell us so,
in plain readable text? even when you were to explain the flaw? Just
wondering.
Time to get back to what this list - the way I understand it - is
purposed for. Anyone else have some meaningful questions on how to
operate the screen reader?
