Re: Until VFO says so, Window-eyes is not dead.

They may not legally be able to at this point. There maybe legal things that might prevent them from making announcements beforethe date that has been decided. One of the VFO staff isn't going tocome on here and go shhhh guys, we're killing Window-eyes but don't tellanyone. They're going to make an official announcement. I am going towait and see what that announcement says, how they plan to take theirnext action and what they decide to do. If Window-eyes operates on mysystem, which it clearly does, it's not dead. VFO hasn't made anofficial announcement that it is so in my book, that means it's stillalive even if it might be in the short term. We shall wait and see. Theannouncement might not even happen for another year. None of us knows.I suppose the speculation will continue until it's time for them to makean announcement.

Until then, we're going round in circles. i propose ignoring allspeculation and window-eyes is dead announcements from non-VFO staff.

Wouldn't you think with all this WE is dead talk that someone from VFOwould step in and say it ain't so?

Hmm, sounds like fake news Peter.  I deal in accuracy, so if VFO
discontinues WE as of July 1st 2017 (for example), then it is not dead
until that date.  I'm sorry if you don't care for reading the truth.

                   If you're trying to get people to stop using
Window-eyes, you're probably in for a pretty good fight there. andthere
has been no official announcement that Window-eyes is indeed dead.
people will still use it no matter what you say.

Well, Window-Eyes is unfortunately definitely dead. It isirrational topresuppose that VFO will support two competing screen readers, withone a
lot cheeper than the other.  Sad to say, JAWS won and WE lost the
screen-reader wars.
Those of us with technical skills ought to help NVDA to improveover time
so
we can keep up with Windows 10 advances.

It always amazes me when smart folks (like on this list) prefer afanticy
instead of reality.  There is absolutely no reason for Window-Eyes to
continue and compete with JFW.  Why would they do that?

There are 3 options to check out: Narrator on Windows 10, NVDA, and
VoiceOver. So, get real and get to work.
I suppose those of you who believe that Window-Eyes will stayaround also
believe that the health care bill that passed the House last week will
cover
everybody as promised by Trump instead of leaving 24 million folkswithout
any health care.
